Mother Mother – Polynesia (Guitar)

  F#
We're on the sea

G#m         E        G#m           Emaj7
We're in a ship and we are sailing by

E         B                G        G#m
All of the fish and all the octopi

Emaj7       G#m             E           G#m
We look them right into their octopi eyes

Emaj7
I'm on the sea

 G#m       E        G#m
I caught a mermaid looking right at me

 Emaj7       E               B
I said, "Hey, baby, why don't you come up top?

         F#                            Emaj7     E     G#m
You could flip-flop while we cruise the Florida Keys"

B
Remember when we said

E                      G#m
"You gonna see us on a red ship sailing"?

B                        Emaj7
We'll think of you on your solid ground

F#                       G#m               F#
We hope you think of us out here sailing around

Emaj7           F#     G#m
   Sailing around, sailing around

 Emaj7
Sailing

Em    G#m   E    G#m   Emaj7  G#m
Polynesia, Polynesia, Polynesia

 E             B
Oceana, oh, New Caledonia

 F#                       G
We dropped the hook on the Capricorn

B
Remember when we said

E                        G#m
"You gonna see us with a sailor tan"?

B                           Emaj7
We'll think of you and your stark white hands

F#                        G#m
Building your model ships, wishing you were

 F#             Emaj7
sailing around

 F#               G#m
Sailing around. sailing around

 Emaj7
Sailing
