G = 320033            C/G = 332010          D = xx0232

G   C/G   D   G   (X 4)

G           C/G       
I bless the day 
D              G
that you were born
G              C/G     
The stars came up 
     D                G
and the heavens were torn
G             C/G
Apart to make way for your 
D              G
Ragged little soul
G           C/G 
Unlike many other thing 
           D             G
You had a purpose and a goal

G               C/G
This café is my island 
         D       G
And the city my sea
G              C/G
You will be my mermaid 
         D              G
And the castaway that’s me 

G   C/G   D   G   (X 2)

G           C/G
Magic is my sugar 
       D              G
I can put it in your tea
G                  C/G
I know it sounds insane 
             D              G
But that’s what she said to me 
G                 C/G
Oh I could make a hymnbook
        D                  G
Out of all the things she does
G                    C/G
From looking like a movie-star
    D              G
To reading on the bus

G               C/G
This café is my island 
         D       G
And the city my sea
G              C/G
You will be my mermaid 
         D              G   
And the castaway that’s me

G   C/G   D   G \
                   C/G \
I would like to be cynic 
        D \             G \
But without you I’d be dead  
    G \               C/G \                       
I would set myself on fire
         D \           G \
Just to light you cigarette
    G \            C/G \      
And if you want to hold my hand 
D \            G \
Every day and night
G \            C/G \
I would gladly chop it off 
D \                     G \
You can keep it if you like

G               C/G
This café is my island 
         D       G
And the city my sea
G              C/G
You will be my mermaid 
         D              G
And the castaway that’s me

G               C/G
This café is my island 
         D       G
And the city my sea

G   C/G  D           G
Hey hey mama call a doctor
G   C/G D                    G
Hey hey I think I’m going insane
G   C/G  D           G
Hey hey mama call a doctor
G   C/G D                    G
Hey hey I think I’m going insane

Hey hey mama call a doctor
G   C/G D                    G
Hey hey I think I’m going insane
G   C/G  D           G
Hey hey mama call a doctor
G   C/G D                    G
Hey hey I think I’m going insane
