[Verse]
Bm A
On the blue waters of mermaids
G A
I was sailing on the blue
Bm A G
Brought up a catch of strangest wonder
A
On the blue
Bm A
And I drew my knife to gut
G A
What I had taken from the blue
Bm A
But it was gone, back to the lake
G A
And vanished into the blue
G A
The waters, they parted
G A
As she rose to shine
[Chorus]
G A Bm A
She was my maid, my wife-to-be
G A Bm A
Returned to me this one time
G A D A G
I did not know her, I made her flee
G A
Flee from me
[Instrumental]
Bm A G A 2x
[Bridge]
G A Bm A
Beneath the waves and marbled rocks
G A Bm A
Watery canyon of blackest depths
G A
My hope was sunk
Bm A G
My dream taken away
G A
Taken away
Bm A G A Bm A
Bm A
Woe to you, she said to me
G A
As she broke cover of the blue
Bm
Don’t you know me?
A G
I couldn’t be yours after all
G A
I never knew
G A
The waters, they parted
G A
As she rose to shine
[Chorus]
G A Bm A
She was my maid, my wife-to-be
G A Bm A
Returned to me this one time
G A D A G
I did not know her, I made her flee
G A
Flee from me
