Mermaid Lyrics & Chords By Sahara Smith

There's a carousel in Pittsburg, 'least there was before the war
I saw a picture in a postcard dated 1934.
And it's probably gone to rust now, but all that silver used to shine.
Anyway that's' where I'm going if I ever cut loose in time.
Somewhere there's a mermaid singing oh whoa whoa whoa
I know 'cause I hear it when I'm sinkin' low.
There's and old hotel in Dublin growing heavy in the Irish rain,
and it's strange to think of all the special ways that
things will never be the same.
And the heart is full of spaces growin' fast and growing deep
Well I dreamed I had a daughter, I was singing her to sleep.
Somewhere there's a mermaid singing oh whoa whoa whoa
I know 'cause I hear it when I'm sinkin' low.
Well I heard that you got married and that all your dreams came true.
Well it's midnight here in Texas and I'm happy for you.
Somewhere there's a mermaid singing oh whoa whoa whoa
I know 'cause I hear it when I'm sinkin',
Somewhere there's a mermaid singing oh whoa whoa whoa
and I know 'cause I hear it when I'm sinkin' low.
