Capo 2
G
Well he heard her singin' all night long
Am
Cryin' out some lonesome song under the moon
G
And the wind was low, and he felt as though
D G
the things she wanted him to know were comin' soon
Am
And when the tide was high, and the ship was about to leave
D G
These are the words that carried across the sea
Am D G
She said, "If you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will show you all of my thousand shapes
Am D G
and if you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will tell you all of my thousand names
Am D
La-da-de-la-da-de-ladie-o..."
G
Well east is east, and west is west
Am
He found that he could not forget that melody
G
And at night he'd cry, and pray to keep it
D G
And wonder if he'd ever sleep enough to dream
Am
And when at last he was sure that his heart it would never mend
D G
She called through the night, and sang to the sky again
Am D G
She said, "If you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will show you all of my thousand shapes
Am D G
and if you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will tell you all of my thousand names
Am D G Am D G
And she cried: "Eeeeeee--eeeeeee-eeeeeee!!!"
Am
Yeah, when the tide was high, and and ship was about to leave
D G
He came to his mind, and threw it into the sea
Am D G
She said, "If you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will show you all of my thousand shapes
Am D G
and if you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will tell you all of my thousand names
Am D G
"OOOOh, and If you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will show you all of your thousand shapes
Am D G
and if you kiss me one time beneath these waves
Am D G
Then I will tell you all of your thousand names
Am D G
La-da-de-la-da-de-ladie-o" (x3)
