Tides aren't caused by centrifugal force but by differing gravity. You would be ripped apart by tides falling straight into black hole.
The near part of Earth experiences more gravity from the Moon, the far part less. The Earth moves in the center so the water bulges on the ends. Important part is that the Earth pulls things out their natural orbits.
With circular orbits, gravity and centrifugal force are balanced so could be considered difference on centrifugal force. But that isn't true for all orbits.
