The Mermaid

F#m         A                    
Don't be deceived by the faces 
    C     G     D
that souls carry around
F#m                        A

         C            G           
But be careful, they can break 
   D
your heart
      C           G              D
So i ask you to please take my eyes

For a while and hold them tight

You know that you're perfect but 
A                       C      G
when he says it you really think

But he's just embellishing words
      C           G             D

     F#m             Am
the pigments of your skin
Em              G           F#m

waves of your upper lip
Em                     G

Em           G

Am*
And what you took from me.
