[Cm] [Gm] My dear sweet [Cm] child, [G] that's what [C] I do.
It's what I live for.
To help unfortunate merfolk like yourself.
[Ab] [G] Poor souls with no one [C] else to [Gm] turn to.
[Cm] [G] I admit that in the past I've been a nasty.
[Cm] They weren't kidding when they called [Db] me, well, a witch.
[C]
But you'll find [G] that [C] nowadays I've mended [G] all my [Ab] ways.
[Db] Repented, seen the light and [Gm] made a switch.
Two [G] years.
And I fortunately knew a little magic.
It's a talent that I always [Ab] have possessed.
[C] And dear lady, please don't laugh.
I use it on behalf [Ab] of the [Db] miserable, lonely [C] and depressed.
[G] Pathetic.
Poor unfortunate souls [C] in [G] pain, in [Cm] need.
This one longing [G] to be thinner, [Cm] that one wants to get the girl.
And do [D] I help them?
[G] Yes, indeed.
Those poor unfortunate [Cm] souls.
[D] So sad, [G] so true.
[C] [Abm] They come flocking to my cauldron [Cm] crying, spells Ursula, please.
And [D] I [G] help them.
Yes, [Cm] I do.
[D] Now it's happened once or twice.
[F] Someone couldn't pay the price.
And [Cm] I'm afraid I had to rake them across the goals.
[Db] Yes, I've had their complaint.
But on the whole, [Ab] I've been [Db] a saint to [Cm] those poor [G] [C] unfortunate souls.
[G]
[C] Now, here's the deal.
I will make you a [Cm] potion that will turn you [Ab] into a human for three [C] days.
Got that?
Three [G] days.
[Ab] Now listen, [Db] this is important.
[D]
Before the sun sets on the [G] third day, you've got to get [Cm] dear old Princey to fall in love with [B] you.
That is, he's [Ab] got to kiss you.
Not just any kiss.
The kiss of true love.
If he does kiss [G] you before the [Cm] sun sets on the third day, you'll remain [D]
human [Gm] permanently.
But if he doesn't, you turn back into a mermaid and you belong [N] to me.
No, Arnie!
Have we got a deal?
If I become human, I'll never be with my father or sisters again.
[G] That's right.
But you'll have your man.
[Cm] Life's full of tough [Gm] choices, [Ab] isn't it?
[Eb] [Db] [G] Oh, and there is one more [Cm] thing.
We haven't [D] discussed the [Eb] subject of payment.
You can't get [G] something for nothing, you know.
But I don't have it.
[Cm] I'm not asking much.
[G] Just a token, really.
A trifle.
[Ab] You'll never even miss [Db] it.
What I want from you is [G] [Gm] your voice.
[Eb] My voice?
[C] You've got it, sweet cakes.
[N]
No more talking, singing, [Eb] zip.
But without my voice, how can I
[G] You'll have your looks, your pretty face.
And don't underestimate the importance of [A] body language.
Ah, [Am] the men up there don't like a lot of blabber.
They think a girl who gossips [Bb] is a fool.
[G] Yet on land it's much preferred for ladies not to say a word.
And [Bb] after all, dear, [Eb] what is idle [A] prattle for?
Come on, [Dm] then.
Not all that impressed with competition.
True gentlemen avoid [Eb] it when they can.
[Gm] But they don't insult [A] and thong on [E] a lady [A] who's withdrawn.
[Bbm] It's [Eb] she who holds her tongue who [A] gets a mass.
Come on, [Dm] you unfortunate soul.
[E] Go [A] ahead.
[Dm] Make your choice.
[E] I'm a very [G] busy woman [A] and I haven't got all day.
It won't [E] cost much.

[Gm] It's sad, [Dm] but true.
[A] If you want to cross a bridge, my [Dm] sweet, you've got to pay the toll.
