Verse
Em      Am                              Em 
  Well Tamatoa hasn't always been this glam 

                         Em 
I was a drab little crab once 

      A7                       C7 
Now I know I can be happy as a clam 

                           Em 
Because I'm beautiful baby  

         Am                        Em 
Did your granny say Listen to your heart 

                             Em 
Be who you are on the inside  

             A7                         Am7 
I need three words to tear her argument apart 


Your granny lied 

              G 
I'd rather be shiny 

       C                             G 
Like a treasure from a sunken pirate wreck 

          C 
Scrub the deck and make it look 

G            C                              Am 
Shiny I will sparkle like a wealthy woman's neck 

       D 
Just a sec 


Don't you know 


Chorus
Em                    C 
  Fish are dumb dumb dumb 

                         Em 
They chase anything that glitters 

C            Em 
Beginners Oh   and here they come come come 

                       Am 
To the brightest thing that glitters 

         D 
Mmm fish dinners 

            Eb 
I just love free food 

                  Eb 
And you look like seafood 

Em   A7      A7 Am7 Am7 Am7 Am F E7 
Well   well                


Verse
     Em 
well  

                                      Em 
Little Maui's having trouble with his look 

                            Em 
You little semidemi minigod  


Ouch what a terrible performance 

        Em 
Get the hook 

                                    Em 
You don't swing it like you used to man 

                                  Em 
Yet I have to give you credit for my start 

         Am                     Em 
And your tattoos on the outside  

G7            A7                          Am 
For just like you I made myself a work of art 

C 
I'll never hide I can't I'm too 

G              C                            G 
Shiny Watch me dazzle like a diamond in the rough 

         C 
Strut my stuff my stuff is so 

G               C                           Am 
Shiny Send your armies but they'll never be enough 

               D 
My shell's too tough Maui man 


Chorus
Em                   C 
  You could try try try 

                       Em 
But you can't expect a demigod 

        C         Em 
To beat a decapod  

                 C 
You will die die die 

                        Am 
Now it's time for me to take apart 

     D 
Your aching heart 

Eb           Bb 
Far from the   ones who abandoned you 

            Bb 
Chasing the love of these humans 

    Bb 
Who made you feel wanted 

    C7        D 
You try to be tough 

         Eb                F           Bb 
But your armour's just not hard enough  

                                Ab 
Maui Now it's time to kick your hiney 


Ever seen someone so 

G             C                                   G 
Shiny Soak it in 'cause it's the last you'll ever see 

         C 
C'est la vie mon ami I'm so 

G              C                             Am 
Shiny Now I'll eat you so prepare your final plea 

     D 
Just for me 

       Eb 
You'll never be quite as shiny 

    Eb                           G7 
You wish you were nice and shiny
