Tom: Dm
F Am
Oh, Mister Sunfish
Bb F
Oh, Mister ocean fish
Dm
Drift away
C
Drift away
Bb C
And lie below the shining rays
F Am
You swim so slowly
Bb C F
Your life seems so carefree
Dm Am
Floating through the sunlight zone
Bb C F
Feeling happy all alone
[Instrumental]
F Am Bb C F
Dm Am Gm C F
[Verse]
F Am
Oh, Mister Sunfish
Bb C F
Oh, Mister ocean fish
Dm
Drift away
Am
Drift away
Bb C
And lie below the shining rays
F Am
Don't you feel lonely
Bb F
And don't you feel unseen?
Dm Am
I do envy you a bit
Gm C F
How you never seem to quit
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb C F
You seem to always try to take your time
Gm C Dm
While staying silent in the ocean brine
Bb F
Oh, I wish I could relate
Bb A D
To a fish without a tail
Bb Bbm
Bbut the sunrise somehow washes me awake
[Chorus]
F Am
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
Bb C F
Please teach me all your ways
Dm Am
How to live without a wish
Bb C
How to swim away my days
Bb C
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
A Dm F
'Cause although you seem gray
Bb F
I know that you can flourish
Gm C F
In the sea where you'll decay
[Instrumental]
F Am Bb C F
Dm Am Gm C F
[Verse]
C Am
Oh, Mister Sunfish
Bb F
Oh, Mister ocean fish
Dm
Tell me why
Am
Tell me why
Bb C
The waters never seem to dry
F Am
It sounds so cozy
Bb F Dm
To dwell the seven seas
Dm Am
Don't you ever feel upset?
Gm C F
Are there things that you regret?
[Pre-Chorus]
Bb C F
You seem to always try to take your time
Gm C Dm
While staying silent in the ocean brine
Bb F
Oh, I wish I could relate
Bb A Dm
To a fish without a tail
Bb Bbm
Bbut the sunrise somehow washes me awake
[Chorus]
F Am
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
Bb F
Please teach me all your ways
Dm Am
How to live without a wish
Bb C
How to swim away my days
Bb C
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
A Dm C
'Cause although you seem gray
Bb F
I know that you can flourish
Gm C F
In the sea where you'll decay
[Bridge]
Bb C F
I've always thought that you were unaware
Gm C Dm
Of cliffs and canyons from below the air
Bb C
I never knew that you have your own
Dm C Bbm
endless skies
Gm Bb
So maybe I was ignorant
Am C D
And you're not very different, after all
Mr. Sunfish, tell me more
[Chorus]
G Gm
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
C D G
Please teach me all your ways
Em Bbm
Tell me all the things you wish
C D
Tell me how you swim your days
C D
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
Bb G
'Cause although you seem gray
C G
I know that you can flourish
Am D G
In the sea where you'll decay
[Outro]
G Bbm
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
C D G
(Oh, Mister ocean fish)
Em
(Drift away)
Bbm
(Drift away)
C D
(And lie below the shining rays)
C D
Good morning, Mister Sunfish
Bb Gm
(Oh, Mister ocean fish)
C G
I know that you can flourish
Am D G
In the sea where you'll decay
C G
And although I've lost courage
Am D G
When the winds led me astray
C G
I know that you can flourish
Am D G
So, maybe I'll be okay
