[Intro]
| E | F#m7 | A |
| E | F#m7 | A |
[Verse 1]
E F#m7
There was no moon, black sky on the night
A E
I jumped from the bridge toward the river
F#m7
I swear, I saw silver star light
A E
On the water's surface, a shimmer
F#m7
Pounded the pulse, I couldn't finish
A E
Didn't hear a splash or feel the cold
F#m7
Was full of bubbles for a minute
A E
Turned to ice, then cycloid scales of gold
F#m7
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
A E
Turned to ice, then cycloid scales of gold
F#m7 A
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
[Verse 2]
E F#m7
My lungs deflated,my fingers weaved
A E
Ribs separated for gills to breath
F#m7
Ran my tongue over my sharp new teeth
A E
Panicked, swimming, collapsed in the reeds
F#m7
Taken with the current to the sea
A E
Tide disrupting desperate dreams
F#m7
My belly empty, body weak
A E
I had no sound, no way to speak
F#m7
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
A E
I had no sound, no way to speak
F#m7 A
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
[Instrumental]
| E | F#m7 | A |
| E | F#m7 | A |
| E | F#m7 | A |
| E | F#m7 | A |
[Verse 3]
E F#m7
I was close to quiet death again
A E
When new instincts woke me from the spell
F#m7
I killed a diamondback terrapin
A E
Was most scared of my awful self
F#m7
I woke up on cold stones, broken glass
A E
Winter beach at Long Island's end
F#m7
I found that I could still maneuver
A E
Slip slide on the sand and the cement
F#m7
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
A E
Slip slide on the sand and the cement
F#m7 A
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
[Verse 4]
E F#m7
I opened sardine dream mermaid bar
A E
We serve most oysters and caviar
F#m7
Leave your seashells in our tall tip jar
A
There are more like me, I swear, there are
E F#m7
Come for scallops, come to hear our song
A E
Come if you're in awful, bad trouble
F#m7
Come if you're certain you don't belong
A E
Some that fall, don't land in bubbles
[Outro]
F#m7 A E F#m7
'Cause some that fall, don't land in bubbles (In bubbles, bubbles)
A E
Some that fall, don't land in bubbles
F#m7
Oh, oh-oh, oh, oh-oh, no
A E F#m7
Some that fall, don't land in bubbles (Bubbles, bubbles)
A
Some that fall, don't land in bubbles
