         A#                    Gm9
There's plenty of girls in the sea
     D#7                  D7
And plenty of seeds in a lemon
     A#                         Gm9
The trick is in trying to stay free
          D#7                    F7
When it's never that great to begin with
      Gm
The surgeon performs precise little cuts
    D#7
But he's never perfect, he's thinking too much
          A#                  D9
And it's really no comfort to me
         D#7                   A#
There's plenty of girls in the sea

There's plenty of girls in the sea
And plenty of those are not women
As soon as you get yourself free
Then somebody stops you from swimming
The lifeguard admits, his whistle in hand
That it isn't the muscle, and it isn't the tan
No it's whatever you want it to be

         Gm
Ah the passionate painter will say with a brush
     D#7
It's best to accept it and not make a fuss so
 A#                          D7
Just cause the grass wasn't green
                D#7                  A# G7
Yeah, there's plenty of girls in the sea

          C                    Am
There's plenty of girls in the sea
      F7                      E7
And plenty of clowns in the village
      C                    Am
The trick is to try to be free
     F7                           G7     G#dim7
And tend to the void, don't just fill it
     Am
The bartender concedes, from inside his vest
      F7                        E/G#
That none of the best ones were ever the best
   C/G                       E7/B
So keep it short, simple and sweet
               Am        G7           C
Cause there's plenty of girls in the sea
             Am           F7
(Plenty of girls) in the sea
               E7                     C
Yeah, there's plenty of girls in the sea
             Am          F7
(Plenty of girls) in the sea
             E7                    C
Oh there's plenty of girls in the sea
             Am          F7
(Plenty of girls) in the sea
                E7                    C
Yeah, there's plenty of girls in the sea
             Am
(Plenty of girls)
