[Intro] G#m D#m B G#m D#m B G#m D#m B G#m D#m N.C [Verse 1]
                  G#m D#m B
The fishes are my friends

                G#m D#m B
Here beneath the sea

              G#m D#m B
Swimming all around

                  G#m D#m B
They're foot-massaging me

                 G#m D#m B
The octopus says "Hi"

                G#m D#m B
I say "How do you do?"

                 G#m D#m B
He's quite the gentleman

                 G#m    N.C
To give me eight salutes
[Chorus]
       G#5   F#5  E5
I'm at home here

       G#5   F#5  E5
In the briny

           G#5   F#5  E5
Since I've found out

          G#5   F#5  E5
You don't want me
[Verse 2]
                      G#m D#m B
The crew thought I was nuts

            G#m D#m B
Jumping overboard

                    G#m D#m B
But what'd I have to lose?

                       G#m D#m B
Except pains inside my gourd

                       G#m D#m B
Except pains inside my heart

                    G#m D#m B
They wouldn't let me be

              G#m D#m B
Now I'm better off

              G#m D#m N.C
As captain of the sea
[Chorus]
       G#5   F#5  E5
I'm at home here

       G#5   F#5  E5
In the briny

           G#5   F#5  E5
Since I've found out

          G#5   F#5  E5
You don't want me

            G#5   F#5  E5
Yeah I'm at home here

       G#5   F#5  E5
In the briny

           G#5   F#5  E5
Since I've found out

          G#5   F#5  E5
You don't want me
[Bridge]
G#5
I went to schools

F#5        A#5
I went to ministry

G#5
But they don't match

F#5        A#5
The soothing of the sea

G#5
I'm back where I

F#5        A#5
Began my primal life

G#5
I am dissolved

F#5        A#5
Into the murky brine

I'm at home here

       G#5   F#5  E5
In the briny

           G#5   F#5  E5
Since I've found out

You don't want me
