Intro:
A


Verse 1:
   A      D  A
Got a book for my birthday
     D  A    E
It was a story about a mermaid
     D        A
And ever since she was little
D          A
She could hear the sea whisper
D  A  E
Hmm hmm hmm
     A
And every day before her bedtime
  D          A
She looked out the window
D       A
Sighing at the fishermen
  E
She knew she was an odd creature

Pre-Chorus:
    D          A
And in her I found a friend
   D       A
Like she was representing
    D         A
All the creatures and the misfits
   E   D   A
That never really blend in


Chorus:
    A          E    A
She was odd like me, she was odd like me
  F#m      Bm7       D     E  A
Oh papa read the story about the girl from the sea
    A          Faug   F#m
She was odd like me, she was odd like me
  F#m      Bm7       D     E  A
Oh papa read the story about the girl from the sea


Verse 2:
       A        D  A
And the first time she dipped her toes
  D    A    E
She knew that she was at home
    D       A
And the concert of the lakes
        D      A
Made her feel a little less alone
D  A  E
Hmm hmm hmm
  A
And memories of a past life
  D          A
Of prayers to the lighthouse
   D          A
They gather round this magic machine
   E
That told the waves to come down


Pre-Chorus:
    D          A
And in her I found a friend
   D       A
Like she was representing
    D         A
All the creatures and the misfits
   E   D   A
That never really blend in


Chorus:
    A          E    A
She was odd like me, she was odd like me
  F#m      Bm7       D     E  A
Oh papa read the story about the girl from the sea
    A          Faug   F#m
She was odd like me, she was odd like me
  F#m      Bm7       D     E  A
Oh papa read the story about the girl from the sea


Bridge:
    N.C.
And her mama cried, and her papa too

"How come that we got to make a mermaid like you?"

And the evening came and they let her go

Waving as she swam into the waves from the shore
Bm7        D      D  E A
Knowing that their baby she was finally home


Chorus:
    A          E    A
She was odd like me, she was odd like me
  F#m      Bm7       D     E  A
Oh papa read the story about the girl from the sea
    A          Faug   F#m N.C.
She was odd like me, she was odd like me
  F#m      Bm7       D     E  A
Oh papa read the story about the girl from the sea
