[Verse 1]
G*                                   Em*
Oooooo ooooo I saw a shinning down below
          C*                      D*                        G*
Where the waves broke I caught a glimpse of the the ocean's soul
                                        Em*
Oooooo ooooo I walked right in from the shore
        C*             D*                G*
To the deepest darkest part of the ocean floor
[Chorus]
CDeep down where those Gmonsters are found that the Dsailors talk about in their Glore
  CI know there's a Gtreasure that glows and Dthat's what I'm looking fGor
  CTo be free, oGh I have to take it with me Dthough the ocean Gswears D/F#it won't be Emeasy
                                C                                  D  G*
  But the ocean don't know me and just how tough that I can be
[Verse 2]
G*                               Em*
Oooooo ooooo With a harpoon in my hand
          C*                            D*             G*
I met the creature of the deep where it makes its last stand
                                     Em*     
Oooooo ooooo How the ocean turned and roared 
     C*                            D*               G*
The waves were so big they cut the whole world new shores
                        Em*           C*                              D*         G*
Oooooo ooooo But now I found that the treasure that I looked for was always around
                           Em*             C*                         D*               G*
Oooooo ooooo The old ocean showed that the treasure's not in what you have or what you show
[Chorus]
CDeep down where those Gmonsters are found that the Dsailors talk about in their Glore
  CI know there's a Gtreasure that glows and Dthat's what I'm looking fGor
  CTo be free, I Gcannot take it with me Dthough the ocean Gswears D/F#it won't be Emeasy Ooooo ooooo
                                C                               D  G*
