the song is originally on piano but I just liked it so much that I just did a simple
for the guitar.

intro: G - Cadd9 - D

G

Sammy says he lost his call

Cadd9 D

On the day Cousteau had died

G
The ocean was a tub of sharks

Cadd9 D

With Jacques Yves as a guide

G

Sammy says the water's safe

Cadd9 D

That man should not have left the seas

G

Called the Human Bathyscaphe

Cadd9 D

He's King of Expertise

REFRAIN:

D5 Cadd9

So if someone wants to know

D5 Cadd9

And asks you where I am

Cadd9 D5

You say you saw me go

G

For a swim with Sam


G

Sammy says they call him "nice"

Cadd9 D

And that it makes him really sick

G

That his "nice" is like "polite"

Cadd9 D

And silence does the trick


G

Sammy says he'd like to go

Cadd9 D

Somewhere far away from here

G

To a sea that no one knows

Cadd9 D

To completely disappear


REFRAIN:

D5 Cadd9

So if someone wants to know

D5 Cadd9

And asks you where I am

Cadd9 D5

You say you saw me go

G

For a swim with Sam
(2x)

(2x)

in the bridge instead of the cadd9 you could try a C, just what suits you better

G G

Don't try to talk me out of this

Cadd9 D
Not while I'm here in Carla's seat

G G

"The sea has many drops of water

Cadd9 D

But the salt won't let you taste the sweet"
(2x)


G G

Don't try to talk me out of this

Cadd9 D

"Don't go, don't go, don't go ..."

G G

Not while I'm here in Carla's seat


Cadd9 D

"Don't go, don't go, don't go ..."
(2x)
