The Mermaid – Great Big Sea Tabbed by: RJ Tuning: Standard This is the gist of what's going on in this song, as best I can figure. Verse (this pattern repeats for each verse):
When I waCs a lad in a fishing toFwn, CMe old man said to me: F "You can spend yoCur life, your jolly life, F Just saiGling on the sea. You can search Cthe world for pretty girls, F 'till your eyes Amare weak and dim, Em But donF't go searching for the mermaid soCn, If you don'Gt know how to swim." C Chorus: F'Cause her hair was green as seaweeCd, Her skiFn was blue and pale, C Her faceF it was a work of art, C I lFoved that girl with all my heart, C But I onlFy like the upper parCt, GI did not like the tail. C
