Atlantis
Donovan Leitch
| C | D |
| The continent of Atlantis was an island | which lay before the great flood |
| F |
In the | area we now call the Atlantic Ocean. |
| C | G | C |
| So great an area of land, that from | her western | shores, those beautiful sailors |
| D |
journeyed to the | south and the North Americas with ease, |
| F | C |
in their | ships with painted sails. | |
| G | C | D |
| To the east | Africa was a neighbor across | a short strait of sea miles. |
| F | C | G |
| The great Egyptian age is but a rem | nant of the At | lantian culture. |
| C |
| The antedeluvian Kings colonised the world; |
| D | Fmaj7 |
| All the Gods who play a part in the | mythological dramas in all legends |
| C | G |
from all | lands were from fair Atlantis. | |
| C | D |
| Knowing her fate, Altantis sent out ships to all corners | of the earth. |
| D | Fmaj7 |
| On board were the twelve, the poet, | the physician, the farmer, the scientist, |
| C | G |
the magi | cian, and the other so called | Gods of our legends. |
| D |
And as the elders of our | time choose to remain blind, |
| D | Fmaj7 | C |
| let us rejoice and let us | sing and dance and ring in the news. | |
| C | D | Fmaj7 | C | G |
| Way down below the | ocean, | where I wanna | be, she may | be! |
