^C The continent of Atlantis was an island ^D Which lay before the great flood In the area we now ^Fmaj7call the Atlantic Ocean ^C So great an area of land, G6 [ C ] That from her western shores

^C Those beautiful sailors journeyed To the South^D and the North Americas with ease In their ^Fmaj7ships with painted sails ^C ^G

To the east, ^CAfrica was her neighbor across a ^Dshort strait of sea miles ^Fmaj7 The great Egyptian age is but a remnant of the ^CAtlantian culture ^G

The Antede^Cluvian kings colonized the world D [ Dsus4 D ] All the gods who play in the mythological dramas And all legends from all ^Fmaj7lands were from fair Atlantis ^C ^G6

^C Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the ^Dearth On board were the twelve: the ^Fmaj7poet, the physician, the farmer, the scientist, The ^Cmagician, and the other so-called ^G6gods of our legends

^CThough gods they were and, as the elders of our time ^Dchoose to remain blind Let us rejoice and let us ^Fmaj7sing and dance and ring in the new ^C Hail, A^Gtlantis!

[Chorus]

Way ^Cdown, below the ^Docean, ^Fwhe^Fadd9re I want to ^Cbe, she may ^Gbe Way ^Cdown, below the ^Docean, ^Fwhe^Fadd9re I want to ^Cbe, she may ^Gbe Way ^Cdown, below the ^Docean, ^Fwhe^Fadd9re I want to ^Cbe, she may ^Gbe
