G D
In the days of the olden times
C Em D
Of ancient ladies and maritime splendor
G D
Priests of Karnak and Thebes
C Em D
Could walk through the oceans and the seas
C D G D
And when the pyramid she would sigh
C Em G
The waters streamed from the sky

The ocean you know she is your friend
C Em D
Your brother, your sister just as sure as sin
F C G
Put your hands in the water

Rest your feet on the sea

You don't have to let your body die, oh no no no

You can come back again if you try, if you try, if you try

This song was made then by you and me
C Em D
A billion years before these oceans rolled
G D
Oh I can see you burning brightly
C Em D
You shine like silver like sun gold
C D G D
And a hundred years from today
C Em G
All you people will be gone away
G D
Down into the heart of the sea
C Em D
Back to the time of wonder why you and me
F C G
And I don't even know your name
F C G
But I thought I'd tell you all about it just the same
F C G
If you laugh real hard you win the game - hands down
F C G
Before old Alexander 'twas just the same as now
F C G D Em
Can you smell the blood of fame, lightness and liberty?
F Em
