Bb              C
She was a catch We were a match
Bb                          C
I was the match That would fire up her snatch
Bb                    C
But there was a catch I was no match
Bb                          C
I was fired from her crotch Now I'll sit around and watch
Bb                          C
The mermaids sun themselves Out on the rocks
Bb                        C
They are beyond our touch I watch and watch
Bb               C
Them wave at me, They wave at me
Bb                 C              Dm
They wave and slip Back into the sea

C                     Bb               Gm  
All the ones who come All the ones who go
               Dm                              
Down to the water 
C                         Bb               Gm
And all the ones who come All the ones who go
             Dm
Down to the sea

Bb               C
I believe in God I believe in mermaids too
Bb                                 C
I believe in 72 virgins on a chain Why not? Why not?
Bb                       C
I believe in the rapture For I've seen your face
Bb                        C                      Dm
On the floor of the ocean At the bottom of the rain


Bb                           C
I do Driver Alertness Course I do Husband Alertness Course
Bb                            C
I do Mermaid Alertness Course I watch them out on the rocks
Bb              C                        
They wave at me,they wave at me 
Bb                 C              Dm
They wave and slip back into the sea

C                     Bb               Gm  
All the ones who come All the ones who go
               Dm                              
Down to the water 
C                         Bb               Gm
And all the ones who come All the ones who go
             Dm
Down to the sea

C                     Bb               Gm  
All the ones who come All the ones who go
               Dm                              
Down to the water 
C                         Bb               Gm
And all the ones who come All the ones who go
             Dm
Down to the sea
