If I was an oyster, I�d close right up and be shy
A F#m E
Down there at the bottom the deep blue sea
E F#m A E
Mindin� my own business while the fish, they go swimmin� by
A F#m E
Cruisin� around in schools above me
E F#m A
Life�s too short to be shy
E F#m A B
It�s over in the blink of an eye
C#m
It�s a fabulous world
B
Full of all kinds of people
A F#m E
(You can) get to know them in good time
You can get to know them in good time
When I was a kid, I used to sit at the side of the playground
And watch all the kids playin� games and runnin all around
Then the bell would ring and we would line up�go inside
I would think I could�ve made some friends if I just tried (if I just tried)
Chorus
They say they best time to plant a tree was twenty years ago
But the second best time is right now today
Crawlin� all out of your shell can be slow, so I know
If your try, you�ll blink and bashfulness will just wash away
Chorus
