  G      C        G
Said "I am who I am
             C       G       C G C
And what I am is a freak
   G        C
Of nature"
      G               C           G         C
The daughter of the ram and the fish

Someday

But who could love someone with scales and horns?

A girl who was cursed since the day she was born

She said, "maybe if I tried I could be someone else"

🎸 Verse 2:
           G             C           G     C
So the daughter of the fish and the ram
     G       C     G
Visited a magical clam
      C          G   C      G
The oldest and wisest creature
 C       G     C G C
In the sea
              G      C         G      C
She said "Magical clam, take pity
   G     C           G
I only want to be pretty"
          C                  G      C G C
And the clam scratched his shell
          G         C G C
And he told her
   G*       C*            Em*    G*
"I will give you this magical pearl
         G*       C*            Em*          G*
It'll grant any wish that you have in the world
      G         C       Em     G
But even the magic that I possess
      G     C         Em     G
Can never bring you true happiness"
                                G                 C
("You gotta take care of that yourself," said the clam)

🎸 Verse 3:
        G              C       G     C
So the power of the magical pearl
   G               C          G
Turned her into a beautiful girl
      C             G C G
And she swam ashore
              C        G      C G C
And crawled up on dry land
      G           C        G       C
But all of the people she met
        G          C       G
Said "why is this girl soaking wet"
           C         G       C G
And they laughed at her
        C          G
And they called her weird
   G*            C*            Em*         G*
Sure, she might not have been ugly anymore
      G*             C*         Em*       G*
But she was just as lonely as she was before
       G           C         Em        G
So, crying, the girl fled back to the sea
      G            C                    Em             G
And she asked the clam, "Why won't your magic work on me "

🎸 Verse 4:
      G            C        G      C
The clam in his wisdom replied
             G        C     G
"It's the person you are inside
C           G         C G C
That's the problem
     G     C
My dear"
    G               C              G       C
"Sadly, you were doomed from the start
              G           C             G
There's an incurable longing in your heart
C              G     C G C
And not even magic
          G
Can fix that"
          G*            C*           Em*     G*
"'Cause you miss the ocean when you're on land
        G*               C*          Em*     G*
And when you're in the water, you miss the sand
   G            C             Em          G
Trust me, my darling, take this time to roam
         G           C             Em             G
'Cause no one you meet is gonna make you feel like you're home"

🎸 Verse 5:
     G              C              G        C
So even though she didn't really like it
       G        C       G
She took the clam's advice
C                  G         C G C
And set out on a journey
         G       C G C
All by herself
      G           C          G       C
And all of the wonders she saw
  G          C               G
Filled her with humility and awe
      C                G      C G C
And she felt right at home
              G         C G C
Wherever she roamed
      G*              C*           Em*    G*
Her hooves let her climb to the highest peaks
         G*             C*           Em*          G*
And her gills let her swim to the bottom of the sea
            G                C              Em             G
And they still called her strange but she didn't really mind
           G                C              Em        G
She was strange, she was strong, she was doing just fine
            G                 C             Em        G
She was strange, she was strong, she was doing just fine

🎸 Verse 6:
       G              C            G       C
The daughter of the ram and the fish
   G           C           G
Still hasn't gotten her wish
         C            G C G C G C G C
But not all of us do
    G      C             G       C
Maybe someday she'll find
     G      C          G
Somebody curious and kind
      C            G C G C
To wander with her
            G*         C*            Em*     G*
But 'til then, she's okay with just being alone
      G*               C*       Em*        G*
Some things you just have to find on your own
    G           C            Em             G
Sorry if my story leaves something to be desired
      G           C            Em           G
My fins are so sore and my hooves are so tired
      G           C            Em           G
My fins are so sore and my hooves are so tired
      G           C            Em*     G C G C
My fins are so sore and my hooves
        G       C G C G Em*
are so tired
