Verse 1
Bm
man from Wexford town
D
A
I've sailed the seven seas
D
G
I will tell you a true story
D
Bm
Of the sunny southern seas
D
G
We were caught up in the Doldrums
D
Bm
While waiting for a breeze
D
G
When the stillness of the day was brok
Bm
A
D
By a merman in the deep blue seas
Em
Well, the captain, he slept
Bm
G
D
Below while the crew, they lay about
G
Bm
When down in the ocean, boys
D
G
We heard this mighty shout
D
G
His hair was red, his eyes were green
D
Bm
His beard was floating free
D
He'd a long green tail that
Bm
D
That waggled in the deep blue sea
Bm
And the mermaids looked so beautiful
D
A
As they swam around by the shore
D
G
But this merman with his fishy tail
D
Bm
I'd never seen before
D
G
And sailors tell the tallest tales
D
Bm
I never told a lie
D
He'd a long green tail that
Bm
D
That wobbled as he swam
G
Bm
A
D
close by
Bm
Was it neptune that appeared to us
D
A
From his mansions in the deep?
D
Bm
Woke the captain from his sleep
D
G
And the captain came on deck at once
D
Bm
Took a look into the deep
D
G
"Oh, I've never seen the likes of this!"
Bm
D
The merman, then, he soon agreed
Bm
what do you come from?
G
D
What do you want here?"
G
Bm
Then he shook his tail, he rocked our boat
D
G
It filled our hearts with fear
D
Bm
It's blocking up me door!
D
And my wife, the mermaid
Bm
A
D
And my children can't get out no more"
Bm
And the mermaids looked so beautiful
D
A
As they swam around by the shore
D
G
But this merman with his fishy tail
D
Bm
I'd never seen before
D
G
And sailors tell the tallest tales
D
Bm
I never told a lie
D
He'd a long green tail that
Bm
A
That wobbled as he swam
D

D
close by
Bm
Well, we quickly hoisted anchor, boys
D
A
And the mermaid then did smile
D
"Sure, me name is Patrick
D
Bm
I came from Erin's Isle
D
G
It was many years ago from now
D
Bm
I was shipwrecked on the reef
D
When this pretty mermaid,
Bm
A
D
From the perils of the ocean deep
Em
Bm
And we very soon were married
G
D
Way down in the deep blue sea
G
Bm
Now I'm happy and contented
D
G
With me wife and family
D
Though I oft times wished
D
Bm
And live on Ireland's shore
D
G
But I'm committed to the ocean deep
Bm
A
D
And I can't go home again no more"
Bm
And the mermaids looked so beautiful
D
A
As they swam around by the shore
D
G
But this merman with his fishy tail
D
Bm
I'd never seen before
D
G
And sailors tell the tallest tales
D
Bm
I never told a lie
D
He'd a long green tail that
Bm
A
D
That wobbled as he swam close by
Bm
And the mermaids looked so beautiful

D
G
But this merman with his fishy tail
D
Bm
I'd never seen before
D
G
And sailors tell the tallest tales
D
Bm
I never told a lie
He'd a long green tail that
Could kill a whale
That wobbled as he swam close by
