* I am not completely sure how the intro/verse is best played, so I've included alternative chords.
* Chord placement in chorus depends if you're using the bass notes to start playing chords.
  The current placement assumes this case. If you're mostly strumming you will have to adjust.
* The chords in the last instrumental and chorus part were made for strumming.
 
[Intro]
Amaj7 Dm/A Cm/A Bm/A
 
[Verse 1]
Amaj7                          Dm/A       Cm/A Bm/A Amaj7
  Dreamed the cars outside my window were actu-ally waves
                             Dm/A         Cm/A Bm/A Amaj7
Slipped in over the sill and carried me away
                        Dm/A               Cm/A Bm/A
Swept me out to sea and that's where I stayed
Amaj7                            Dm/A
Learn to live among the fish and seaweed maids
 
[Pre-Chorus]
     Amaj7                           Dm/A            Cm/A Bm/A
Friends with every creature as I crossed the ocean floor
Amaj7                            Dm/A                    Cm/A
Sippin' tea with tuna fish and whales just off the shore
      Bm/A       Amaj7 Dm/A            Cm/A          Bm/A   Amaj7
Oh, I felt so at ease  slippin' in and out of those ocean waves
 
[Chorus]
  Fmaj7                    C
Some things were made for one thing
       Em/B              Em/C
For me, that one thing is the sea
  Fmaj7                   C
Some things were made for one thing
       Em/B      Fmaj7 G6/A    Amaj7
For me, that one thing is the sea
 
[Interlude]
Dm/A  Cm/A Bm/A
Amaj7 Dm/A  Cm/A Bm/A
 
[Verse 2]
Amaj7                                   Dm/A              Cm/A Bm/A
  Climbin' through the mountains up so high above the sea
Amaj7                              Dm/A                  Cm/A
The air is so much clearer but I find it hard to breathe
        Bm/A       Amaj7
So I'll follow the streams
Dm/A                    Cm/A            Bm/A      Amaj7  Dm/A  Cm/A Bm/A
Float back down to the sounds that lead out to the deep
 
[Bridge]
   Amaj7                                Am7 Amaj7 Bm/A
I felt this release, this sweet relief, oh  I     am relieved
Cm/A    Amaj7                            Am7 Amaj7 Bm/A
This immediate relief, this sweet relief,    I     am relieved
 
[Chorus]
  Fmaj7                    C
Some things were made for one thing
       Em/B              Em/C
For me, that one thing is the sea
  Fmaj7                    C
Some things were made for one thing
       Em/B              Em/C
For me, that one thing is the sea
Fmaj7              C
Some things were made for one thing
       Em/B              Em/C
For me, that one thing is the sea
  Fmaj7                    C
Some things were made for one thing
       Em/B      Fmaj7 G6/A    Amaj7
For me, that one thing is the sea
 
[Verse 3]
Amaj7                                      Dm/A
  Driving through the flood plains feeling dizzy
       Cm/A    Bm/A      Amaj7           Dm/A     Cm/A Bm/A
People with me wondering why all I could do was reply:
 
[Bridge]
Am9                       Bm7/A Amaj7  Bm/A
I am a fish, I am a fish and   I need water
Amaj7                     Bm7/A Amaj7  Bm/A
I am a fish, I am a fish and   I need water
Am7                              D/A
I am a fish, I am a fish and I need water
Am7                              D/A
I am a fish, I am a fish and I need water
Am7                              D/A
I am a fish, I am a fish and I need water
Amaj7                             N.C
I am a fish, I am a fish, I am officially a fish

  Fmaj7                    C
