[Intro]

[Verse]
C
 The continent of Atlantis was an island
D
 Which lay before the great flood
                   Fmaj7
In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean
C
 So great an area of land,
G6                   [ C ]
 That from her western shores

C
   Those beautiful sailors journeyed
            D
To the South and the North Americas with ease
         Fmaj7                        C  G
In their ships with painted sails

             C                                D
To the east, Africa was her neighbor across a short strait of sea miles
Fmaj7                                            C                  G
  The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of the Atlantian culture

          C
The Antedeluvian kings colonized the world
        D                                [ Dsus4 D ]
All the gods who play in the mythological dramas
                         Fmaj7                          C  G6
And all legends from all lands were from fair Atlantis

C                                                                D
 Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the earth
                              Fmaj7
On board were the twelve: the poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist,
    C                                 G6
The magician, and the other so-called gods of our legends

C                                                    D
Though gods they were and, as the elders of our time choose to remain blind
                          Fmaj7
Let us rejoice and let us sing and dance and ring in the new
C        G
  Hail, Atlantis!


[Chorus]
    C               D      F  Fadd9        C           G
Way down, below the ocean, where I want to be, she may be
    C               D      F  Fadd9        C           G
Way down, below the ocean, where I want to be, she may be
    C               D      F  Fadd9        C           G
Way down, below the ocean, where I want to be, she may be


[Solo break]
| C | D | F | C G |


[Chorus] with solo parts and ad-lib vocals
    C               D      F  Fadd9        C           G
Way down, below the ocean, where I want to be, she may be
    C               D      F  Fadd9        C           G
Way down, below the ocean, where I want to be, she may be
    C               D      F  Fadd9        C           G
Way down, below the ocean, where I want to be, she may be
