Can't swim so I took a boat, to an island so remote
G           A              Bm          D
Only Johnny Depp has ever been to it before
G                       A                Bm                   D
I stayed there till the air was clear I was bored and out of tears
Em                             A
Then I saw you washed up on the shore

G          A             Bm           D
I offered you my coat, thank god this luck can flow
G               A                Bm            D
Crazy how that shipwreck met my ship was coming in
G                 A               Bm           D
We talked till the sun went down, love on the fugit sound

My treasure map was on your skin

Bm            D      A           G
Beauty in the water, angel on the beach
Bm       D       A          F#m
Ocean's daughter, I thought love was out of reach
Bm     D                A                  Em
Till I got her, had I known it could come through
                      A                    G    A   Bm
I would have wished in '92, for a mermaid just like you
D     G    A     Bm     D
Whoa, just like you, whoa

G                   A          Bm               D
Shocks, screams with envy they wonder what you see in me
G                   A          Bm                D
Funny thoughts sometimes can't help but wonder about as well
G                   A          Bm                   D
Now life is a holiday, making up for the years I paid
G                   A          Bm                D
The way to this heavenly bay…it went through hell

Puttin' a candle to you, they don't have a handle on you, they don't have a scandal on you

Holler back will save you
   G             A        Bm                     D
...saving me was B-I-G, all the boyfish in the sea
G                                 A
They all wish that they could be me
