[Verse 1]
Bbmaj7 Gm7
I wish I was a turtle
Cm7 F7
I would live life so slow
Bbmaj7 Gm7
Gala-lapagas turtle i mean tortoise
Cm7 F7
And I’ve sworn this since long ago
[Chorus 1]
Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7
Wouldn’t you say that I couldn’t hear your screams and shouts
Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7
Most of the time I’ve got my head inside of my house
Ebmaj7 Gm7 C9 F7
When I wanna say hello to one of my good friends
F7
I peak my head out
F7
Say What’s Up
Eb5 Bbmaj7
Then go back in
[Verse 2]
Bbmaj7 Gm7
I wish I was a turtle
Cm7 F7
I’d never be in no rush
Bbmaj7 Gm7
Gala-lapagas tortoise I mean turtle
Cm7 F7
Just lurking around in the galapagos
[Chorus 2]
Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7
Wouldn’t you say I couldn’t hear you very well
Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7
Call me Barack Obama I enjoy being inside “my shell”
Ebmaj7 Gm7 C9 F7
When I wanna say hello to one of my good friends
F7
I peak my head out
F7
Say What’s Up
Eb5 Bbmaj7
Then go back in
[Verse 3]
Bbmaj7 Gm7
I wish I was a turtle
Cm7 F7
Just doing things that turtles do
Bbmaj7 Gm7
Just walking slow and eating grass
Cm7
And living for a really long time
F7
It’d be like a dream come true
[Chorus 3]
Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7
Wouldn’t you say that my shell is 80% soundproof
Ebmaj7 Bbmaj7
I wish I was a turtle, and that’s the god honest true ye eye
Ebmaj7 Gm7 C9 F7
When I wanna say hello to one of my good friends
F7
I peak my head out
F7
Say What’s Up
Eb5 Bbmaj7
Then go back in
