G
Just sailing on the sea.
C F
You can search the world for pretty girls,
Am Em
˜till your eyes are weak and dim,
F C
But don't go searching for the mermaid son,
G C
If you don't know how to swim.
Chorus:
F C
˜Cause her hair was green as seaweed,
F C
Her skin was blue and pale,
F C
Her face it was a work of art,
F C
I loved that girl with all my heart,
F C
But I only like the upper part,
G C
I did not like the tail.
