[VERSE 1]
D G D
Deep in the water of the cool Pacific
D G Em
The tuna swim and lobsters crawl
D G D
When out of the murk swims a black-clad merman
D G Em
Singin' and playin' his kelp guitar
D A
He says "Gather round and I'll tell you a tale
D A
Of women and bottles of wine"
[CHORUS]
D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from the land
A D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
[VERSE 2]
D G D
One stormy evening I stand on the deck
D G Em
My heart like the ship tossed by the waves
D G D
I look to the heavens as the clouds pass over
D G Em
Wishin' and hopin' for a sign from above
D A
The the sharks they tune up their fiddles and pipes
D A
And the sculpin crack open a beer
[CHORUS]
D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from the land
A D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
[VERSE 3]
D G D
Smooth and silent the submarine glides
D G Em
Its torpedoes and nukes send ships to the deep
D G D
The merman plugs in, says goodnight to his wife
D G Em
Blows kisses to the littles and tunes up his guitar
D A
Runs up some scales and skips through some riffs
D A
And opens his mouth to sing
[CHORUS]
D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from the land
A D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
[OUTRO]
D A D
And out of the deep come the sounds from the land
A D
Timmy Keenan and his Undersea Band
