Here's the lyrics!

We were just driftin'
On the golden sea
Carried by waves
So gen-tle-ly
Starbord side
It caught our eyes
A purple turtle
Floatinâ€™ by
Swam on up
Greeted with smile
We asked "where do you come from,
Indigo child?"
Upon with wit
Replied so quick
Well i'll tell you
Sailor one and two
The story of some turtles
One red and one blue.
She was floatinâ€™
At her favorite reef
Parted the seaweed And
he caught her eye
Among the coral
This handsome guy
Bashful was she
Self conscious but free
She couldn't help but feel sooo...
But she wanted to be careful
Because, of, the, past.
He was glidin
Ever so smooth
Felt the current
Carry him true
A lady he saw
Of pristine beauty
Her eloquent eyes
Mystique and soothing
He couldn't help but feel sooo...
But he wanted to be careful
Because, of, the, past.
With their eyes locked
The current began to change
Together they came
and their shells did knock
You know what happens
Beneath the waves
They made some purpely turtles
To continue their ways
Yes some purple turtles
To swim in the waves
Yes some purplely turtles
Yes some purplely turtles
To swim in waves

NOTE:

A.) For the intro and the verse riff:
You hit a B at the 7th fret on your E string before playing the E9 chord, and then you hit the A on ur 5th fret on your E string before hitting the E/C# chord.

B.) When you see a chord diagrammed as a letter then a / then another letter that means this: The first letter is the Chord. the letter AFTER the Slash ( / ) means that you put that note in as the BASS note of the chord. So an E/C# means its an E major chord (in this case it takes the D major shape, but with the capo on the 2nd fret it makes it an E major chord) with a C# in the bass.

Hope this helps! I'll record a new video soon
