This is what Aaron plays with an acoustic guitar.

***Capo 3rd fret***
A7- x02020
could play Am as Am7 too x02010. Can't quite tell what it's suppose to be.

intro: E
verse 
E (022100@1)Stitch up the nets but the patch won't stay

As the nail beds rest in the calico hay
    A7 (x02020@1)         Am (x02210@1)                 E (022100@1)The Fiji Mermaid dressed in macrame's

Wading road in the fork and a bend

In the spoon tern cut short as a shadow at noon
 A7 (x02020@1)               Am (x02210@1)Melting like wax as that once full moons
  E (022100@1)Now waning ersatz acts an insufferable bore

Sharp Shots dull as a harlequins sword
       A7 (x02020@1)                Am (x02210@1)When doing as you please doesn't please you anymore

interlude: C G C A7 Am    C G C E
verse
E (022100@1)Stick of the match as the paraffin show

Drop a nickel to watch the asparagus grow
      A7 (x02020@1)               Am (x02210@1)The stone in what shell?
                  E (022100@1)You sure like to know now don't you?

A loom in the heir as the medicine came

To the nest of the mare of the mystery claims
           A7 (x02020@1)                     Am (x02210@1)But you'll miss having someone to blame
                  E (022100@1)For your sadness, now won't you?

Well maybe there'll be a bakery hiring
        A7 (x02020@1)          Am (x02210@1)We'll knead a little dough to get by

interlude: C G C A7 Am x2

verse
C (x32010@1)                          E (022100@1)Did you come knocking on my door

Or did I come to yours?
C (x32010@1)                           E (022100@1)Whose ship came washed up on whose shore?

And from what ocean floor?
