[Intro]
D D G D
D G Em Em
D D G D
D G Em Em
[Verse]
D D G D
Deep in the waters of the cool Pacific
D G Em Em
The tuna swim and lobsters crawl
D D G D
When out of the murk swims a black-clad merman
D G Em Em
Singin' and playin' his kelp guitar
D D A A
He says "Gather round and I'll tell you the tale
D D A A
of women and bottles of wine"
[Chorus]
D D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from off land
A A D D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
[Verse]
D D G D
One stormy evening I stand on the deck
D G Em Em
My heart like the ship tossed by the waves
D D G D
I look to the heavens as the clouds pass over
D G Em Em
Wishin' and hopin' for a sign from above
D D A A
Then the sharks they tune up their fiddles and pipes
D D A A
And the sculpin crack open a beer
[Chorus]
D D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from off land
A A D D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
[Verse]
D D G D
Smooth and silent the submarine glides
D G Em Em
Its torpedos and nukes send ships to the deep
D D G D
The merman plugs in, says goodnight to his wife
D G Em Em
Blows kisses to the littles and tunes up his guitar
D D A A
Runs up some scales and skips through some riffs
D D A A
And opens his mouth to sing
[Chorus]
D D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from off land
A A D D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
[Outro]
D D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from off land
A A D D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
