Capo 3rd fret
INTRO
F G Am E x2
VERSE 1
F G Am E
Can’t swim so I took a boat, to an island so remote
F G Am C
Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before
F G Am E
I stayed there till the air was clear I was bored and out of tears
Dm G [ch]E7/G#[/ch]
Then I saw you washed up on the shore
VERSE 2
F G Am E
I offered you my coat, thank god this luck can flow
F G Am C
Crazy how that shipwreck meant my ship was coming in
F G Am E
We talked till the sun went down, love on the fugit sound
Dm E
My treasure map was on your skin

CHORUS
Am F C G Am
Beauty in the water, angel on the beach
F C G Am
Ocean’s daughter, I thought love was out of reach
F C G Dm
Till I got her, had I known it could come true

I would have wished in ’92, for a mermaid just like you
F G Am E
just like you
