the merman
d-g-d-g-d-g-bm-a-d
i’m a (d)sailorman from (g)wexford town,
i’ve (d)sailed the seven (a)seas,
i will (d)tell you a true (g)story
of the (d)sunny southern (g)seas.
we were (d)caught up in the (g)doldrums
while (d)waiting for a (g)breeze
when the (d)stillness of the (g)day was broke
by a (bm)merman in the (a)deep blue (d)seas.
well the (g)captain he (d)slept below
while the (g)crew they lay a(d)bout
when (g)down in the (d)ocean, boys
we heard this mighty (g)shout.
his (d)hair was red, his (g)eyes were green,
his (d)beard was floating (g)free
he’d a (d)long green tail that could (g)kill a wale
that (bm)waggled in the (a)deep blue (d)sea.
chorus:
an the (d)mermaids looked so (g)beautiful
as they (d)swam around by the (a)sh-r-
but this (d)merman with his (g)fishy tail
i’ve (d)never seen be(g)fore.
and (d)sailors tell the (g)tallest tales
i’ve (d)never told a (g)lie;
he’d a (d)long green tail that could (g)kill a wale
that (bm)wobbled as he (a)swam close (d)by.
