[Intro]
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 1]
G C G C
G C G
Said "I am who I am
C G C G C
And what I am is a freak
G C G C
Of nature"
G C G C
The daughter of the ram and the fish
G C G
Always had one secret wish
C G C G C
That someone would love her
G C G C
Someday
G Em C G
But who could love someone with scales and horns?
G Em C G
A girl who was cursed since the day she was born
G Em D C
She cried and she whined and she hated herself
G Em D C
She said, "maybe if I tried I could be someone else"
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 2]
G C G C
So the daughter of the fish and the ram
G C G
Visited a magical clam
C G C G
The oldest and wisest creature
C G C G C
In the sea
G C G C
She said "Magical clam, take pity
G C G
I only want to be pretty"
C G C G C
And the clam scratched his shell
G C G C
And he told her
G Em C G
"I will give you this magical pearl
G Em C G
It'll grant any wish that you have in the world
G Em D C
But even the magic that I possess
G Em D C
Can never bring you true happiness"
("You gotta take care of that yourself," said the clam)
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 3]
G C G C
So the power of the magical pearl
G C G
Turned her into a beautiful girl
C G C G
And she swam ashore
C G C G C
And crawled up on dry land
G C G C
But all of the people she met
G C G
Said "why is this girl soaking wet"
C G C G
And they laughed at her
C G
And they called her weird
G Em C G
Sure, she might not have been ugly anymore
G Em C G
But she was just as lonely as she was before
G Em D C
So, crying, the girl fled back to the sea
G Em D C
And she asked the clam, "Why won't your magic work on me?"
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 4]
G C G C
The clam in his wisdom replied
G C G
"It's the person you are inside
C G C G C
That's the problem
G C
My dear"
G C G C
"Sadly, you were doomed from the start
G C G
There's an incurable longing in your heart
C G C G C
And not even magic
G
Can fix that"
G Em C G
"'Cause you miss the ocean when you're on land
G Em C G
And when you're in the water, you miss the sand
G Em D C
Trust me, my darling, take this time to roam
G Em D C
'Cause no one you meet is gonna make you feel like you're home"
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 5]
G C G C
So even though she didn't really like it
G C G
She took the clam's advice
C G C G C
And set out on a journey
G C G C
All by herself
G C G C
And all of the wonders she saw
G C G
Filled her with humility and awe
C G C G C
And she felt right at home
G C G C
Wherever she roamed
G Em C G
Her hooves let her climb to the highest peaks
G Em C G
And her gills let her swim to the bottom of the sea
G Em C G
And they still called her strange but she didn't really mind
G Em D C
She was strange, she was strong, she was doing just fine
G Em D C
She was strange, she was strong, she was doing just fine
G C G C G C G C
[Verse 6]
G C G C
The daughter of the ram and the fish
G C G
Still hasn't gotten her wish
C G C G C G C G C
But not all of us do
G C G C
Maybe someday she'll find
G C G
Somebody curious and kind
C G C G C
To wander with her
G Em C G
But 'til then, she's okay with just being alone
G Em C G
Some things you just have to find on your own
G Em D C
Sorry if my story leaves something to be desired
G Em D C
My fins are so sore and my hooves are so tired
G Em D C
My fins are so sore and my hooves are so tired
G Em D C
My fins are so sore and my hooooooves
G C G C G C
are so tired
