Biography:
Folksinger and songwriter Sinéad Lohan debuted in early 1995 with the album Who Do You Think I Am, scoring several major hits in her native Ireland with singles including "Sailing By" and the Bob Dylan cover "To Ramona."
After touring the UK in support of avowed fan Joan Baez, Lohan travelled to New Orleans to collaborate with producer Malcolm Burn; the resulting LP, No Mermaid, made the subject of an intense American major label bidding war, with the victorious Interscope issuing the record in mid-1998.

[INTRO]
F
[VERSE 1]
F
We went down to the edge of the water
G
You were afraid to go in
Bb
You said there might be sharks out there in the ocean
F
And I said I'm only going for a swim
I was swimming around in a circle
G
I wasn't always in view
Bb
You said we might get into red flag danger
F
And I am alone when I'm not with you
[CHORUS]
Bb
But I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
And I am no fisherman's slave
Bb
I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
I keep my head above the waves
[VERSE 2]
F
We were swinging from the centre of the ceiling
G
You were afraid to give in
Bb
I said i know I'll always live for this feeling
F
And you closed your eyes you said never again
I was dancing in the middle of the desert
G
You said we'll burn under the hot sun
Bb
I said I'd rather be the colour of the pleasure
F
Than watch like you from under the thumb
[CHORUS]
Bb
But I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
And I am no fisherman's slave
Bb
I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
I keep my head above the waves
[VERSE 3]
F
We went down to the edge of the water

And I said I'm only going for a swim
I was living around in a circle
G
I wasn't always In view
Bb
You said we might get into red flag danger
F
And I am alone when I'm not with you
[CHORUS]
Bb
But I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
And I am no fisherman's slave
Bb
I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
I keep my head above the waves
Bb
And I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
And I am no fisherman's slave
Bb
I am no mermaid I am no mermaid
F
I keep my head above the waves
