Then If take my seg ments get (Gsus2)sep ar at ed, I’ll (Bm7)scream kiss you
and you’ll be (Asus)there.
If (D)Close

slide me the cot ton off (D)of your should er and feel

a line.
as love I’ll throw a par ty and (Gsus2)greet my un der sea (Bm7)friends
as they ar rive.
You and (A)I left our (Em)trou bles far be hind.
But I still (A)have just one more (C)ques tion on my mind
for all my (A)pals who live in the (Bm7)o ceans and the seas:
