Mermaid Song Chords

(ver. 1)
Emily Kinney
[Intro]
B  G#m  E   B  G#m  E

[Verse 1]
B          G#m            E
  I am a mermaid that you dreamt
B           G#m           E
  Swimming away while you slept
B          G#m  E
  4th of July,  kegs of beer
         B          G#m              E
Baby, we had a nice time but I don't really fit in here


[Chorus]
B               G#m        E
  You pulled me up to your bedroom
          B               G#m      E
I fell in love, I fell in love too soon
        B          G#m             E
I don't know the intention of your heart
        B                  G#m                  E
I don't know why it's been scary from the start
            B                  G#m          E
And I don't know how you don't know how to apologize
           B              G#m           E
So I'll be almost to the ocean when you open your eyes


[Post-Chorus]
B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away


[Verse 2]
B                     G#m              E
  What's the point of California if we don't go to the beach?
B                     G#m                      E
  What's the point of being friends when we're both so hard to reach?
B                     G#m              E
  What's the point of all the midnight text messages you send?
        B                 G#m                E
I can't help but break in half each time you ask me to bend
       B           G#m            E
I can't help but unravel when you pull out a thread
       B       G#m           E
I just lose my mind when you mess with my head
           B                G#m          E
And I will always throw a tantrum if you throw me just some bone
             B            G#m                E
I'm not your puppy, I'm a famous fish, who'd rather swim alone


[Chorus]
B               G#m        E
  You pulled me up to your bedroom
          B               G#m      E
I fell in love, I fell in love too soon
        B          G#m             E
I don't know the intention of your heart
        B                  G#m                  E
I don't know why it's been scary from the start
            B                  G#m          E
And I don't know how you don't know how to apologize
           B              G#m           E
So I'll be almost to the ocean when you open your eyes


[Post-Chorus]

B  G#m  E

B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away
B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away
B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away
B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away
B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away
B    G#m          E
  Oh,   swimming away


[Outro]
B          G#m            E
  I am a mermaid that you dreamt
B           G#m           E
  Swimming away while you slept
B          G#m  E
  4th of July,  kegs of beer
         B          G#m              E
Baby, we had a nice time but I can't really breathe up here
