Train - Mermaid (California 37, 2012.)
Ab, Bb, Cm, Gm
Whoaaa
Ab Bb Cm Gm
Can't swim so I took a boat, to an island so remote
Ab Bb Cm Gm
Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before
Ab Bb Cm Gm
I stayed there till the air was clear, I was bored and out of tears
Fm Bb G
Then I saw you washed up on the shore
Ab Bb Cm Gm
I offered you my coat, thank Goddess love can float
Ab Bb Cm Gm
Crazy how that shipwreck meant my ship was coming in
Ab Bb Cm Gm
We talked till the sun went down, love on the Puget sound
Fm G
My treasure map was on your skin

CHORUS:
Cm Ab Eb Bb
Beauty in the water, angel on the beach
Cm Ab Eb Gm
Ocean’s daughter, I thought love was out of reach
Cm Ab Eb Bb
Till I got her, had I known it could come true
Fm G Ab Bb Cm
I would have wished in '92 for a mermaid just like you
Gm Ab Bb Cm Gm
Whoa, just like you, whoa
Sharks green with envy, they wonder what you see in me
Funny but sometimes can't help but wonder that as well
Now life is a holiday, making up for the years I paid
The way to this heavenly bay, it went through hell
CHORUS
BRIDGE:
Bb Fm
Rescued you by the banyan tree, all the girl fish in the sea
Ab
Couldn't hold a handle to you, they don’t have a handle on you
Eb B
They don't have a scandal on you, I love Ecco sandals on you
Bb Fm
Savin' me was B.I.G., all the boy fish in the sea
Ab G
They all wish that they could be me
Ab Bb Cm Gm
Can't swim so I took a boat, to an island so remote
Ab Bb Cm G
Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before
CHORUS
Just like you 2x
Ends on Ab
