[Verse]
C    Am   Em [Riff]          C 
Open sesame (We've places to go) 
          Am     Em [Riff]            C 
We've people to see(Let's put them on hold) 
               Am    Em [Riff]                 C 
There's all sorts of shapes that I bet you can make 
        Am     Em 
When you have to escape. Say the word
[Bridge]
C                                  Am      Em 
Well I know getting you alone isn't easy to do 
         C                           Am              Em 
With the exception of you, I dislike everyone in the room 
      C                                      Am          Em 
And I don't want to lie, but I don't want to tell you the truth 
                                                  C 
Get the sense that you're on the move, and you'll probably be leaving soon. 
      Am          Em 
So I'm telling you
[Chorus]
C                      Em   C          Em 
Stop the world cause I wanna get off with you 
C                      Em   C          Em 
Stop the world cause I wanna get off with you

Eyes the colour of (Water left in mud)

Icing sugar dust(Crazy green flashes) 
       Am     Em [Riff]             C 
It's a funny thing that I cannot explain 
          Am        Em 
Don't you know the train keeps rolling
[Chorus]
C                      Em   C          Em

C                                              Am Em

Think we both ought put 'em on hold and I know you agree
