Tardigrade Song Uke tab by Cosmo Sheldrake

[Intro]
E

[Verse 1]
E           G              Em
If I were a tardigrade I'd move out from home
Em              G                  D          G
Why live in the shrubbery when you could have a throne?
Em                              E
Pressure wouldn't squash me and fire couldn't burn
Em
These are the things that I never will learn
D                 A        D        A   Em
These are the things I never will learn...

[Refrain 1]
                         C                B
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai
Em           D            C             E
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai

[Verse 2]
E           G              Em
I live in the shrubbery, for that's all I crave
Em              G                  D          G
I don't want these excitements to see me to my grave
Em                              E
I can live life in vacuums for years with no drink
Em
And put up with hardships more than you can think
D                 A        D        A   Em
And put up with hardships more than you can think...

[Refrain 1]
Em                      C                B
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai
Em           D            C             E
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai

[Bridge]
Em              G            C               Em
If I shed all my liquid and let myself dry out
A                G              B
I'll shrivel and sleep for some 15-odd years
Em           G               C           B
I'd wake up, come water, and get on with living
Am              G         B          Em
With time in my pocket to pass by the day

[Verse 3]
E           G              Em
If I were a tardigrade I'd move out from home
Em              G                  D          G
Why live in the shrubbery when you could have a throne?
Em                              E
Pressure wouldn't squash me and fire couldn't burn
Em
These are the things that I never will learn
D                 A        D        A   Em
These are the things I never will learn...

[Refrain 1]
Em                      C                B
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai
Em           D            C             E
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai

[Refrain 2]
Em                      C                B
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai
Em           D            C             E
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai

[Outro]
E
For I am a tardigrade
         D           E
And I'll stay at home 
        D            Em
I'd not trade it for anything 
      A        D        Em
Not a knife, a cup or a throne 
            D          C 
Well, all I want is my shrubbery 
Em            D        Em
And my little patch of moss 
               D       C
With my whisky in the cabinet 
Em              D         Em
And my feet all clothed in socks
D     A      E           D
And my feet clothed in socks...

[Refrain 1]
Em                      C                B
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai
Em           D            C             E
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai

[Refrain 1]
Em                      C                B
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai, lai
Em           D            C             E
Lai, lai-lai-lai lai lai, lai-lai lai-lai lai lai
