Oil In The Water Chords

[Intro]
 
G Em G Em
 
[Verse 1]
        G
There's oil in the water
           Em
There's an itch I can't scratch
        G
I can't shake the thorn that caught you
        Em
And it always seems to catch
       C                     
Do you still get my letters, 
          Am
is every syllable a torture?
        C                       
Do your eyes still get childish 
         Am
when the sun comes out in autumn?
 
[Verse 2]
        G
There's oil in the water
          Em
There's a breath I can't get back
       G
And my tongue can't take the weight of
       Em
Every insult rushing back
       C                      
Do you still like my records, 
      Am
how I put it on wax?
          C                     
Or do you hate how my fictions, 
     Am
make whores of my facts?
 
[Chorus]
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's oil in the water
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's oil in the water
 
[Verse 3]
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's iron on these lips
           G
Where your kisses used to barter
                Em
For time spent 'tween your hips
         C          
Have you found some 
               Am
new fingers to fumble at your fastenings?
         C                         
Are you amused by fresh platitudes 
   Am
of love ever-lasting?
 
[Verse 4]
        G
There's oil in the water
          Em
There's a ribbon of red
               G
And you should really blame St Christopher
          Em
For these ideas in my head
       C                     
Do you still get my letters, 
          Am
is every syllable a torture?
        C                       
Do your eyes still get childish 
         Am
when the sun comes out in autumn?
 
[Chorus]
 
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's oil in the water
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's oil in the water
 
[Outro]
 
       C                            Am
Do you still like my records, how I put it on wax?
          C                     
Or do you hate how my fictions, 
     Am
make whores of my facts?
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's oil in the water
        G
There's oil in the water
        Em
There's oil in the water
        G
There's oil in the water...
