Quatro anos de trabalho duro!

Neste mês de maio fizemos quatro anos no ar. Continuamos trabalhando na divulgação deste maravilhoso instrumento, obrigado por participar da nossa história!

E
When he was a boy
G#7
he wanted to play
C#m A
down by the sea

E
At age thirteen
G#7
everyday after school
C#m A
he would always sail around the lake

E
All the people would stand and stare
G#7
as he sailed around with precision and care
E
With his bi-corner hat and the way he would stand
G#7
he looked just like a Navy man
C#m A
All the townsfolk would gather and say and sing away

E A
Captain Albert Alexander
B A
He'll be a brave seafarer someday
E A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B A
He'll go down in the waves

E
By age twenty four
G#7
he had left the shore
C#m A
and was sailing for the Queen

E
On a dark starry night
G#7
Albert awoke to the sound
C#m A
of his Captain screaming as he was drowned

E
The Navy crew was taking a lick
G#7
pirates had invaded the ship
E
But Albert with one aimed harpoon
G#7
ignited their rum with a spark and soon
C#m A
flames drove the pirates away the Navy sang

E A
Captain Albert Alexander
B A
Saved his crew from pirate slaughter
E A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B A
He'll go down in the water

E
Now everyone dance
G#7 C#m A
Dance Dance Daaaaaaaaaance

E
Twenty some odd years later
G#7
On his ship The Sea Slater
C#m A
He sailed into a mass of blubber

E
Gazing up to the sky
G#7
stood a large walrus
C#m A E
that was a hundred stories high it meant no harm

G#7
The walrus was in a great deal of pain
E
It suffered from a tusk with tooth decay
G#7
Albert threw his anchor 'round it's tusk
C#m
with a little bit of pulling it was out by dusk
A
The walrus thanked Albert and sang as he sailed away

E A
Captain Albert Alexander
B A
Friend to sea urchin and me
E A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B A
He'll go down in the sea

G#7 C#m
At a ripe old age lightning struck from the sky
G#7 C#m
and split Albert's vessel in two
G#7 C#m
One hundred men fled for their lives
G#7 C#m
on rafts across the ocean blue

C#m A
Albert stood at the stern of his ship
C#m A
A giant octopus had him in it's grip
C#m A
A vortex of spiraling death below ripped
C#m A
and sharks and electric eels all made the trip
C#m
to see Albert
E A
sink to the bottom of the sea

C#m A
Just before he went down
C#m A
he called out to his crew
C#m A
It's obvious that my time has come
C#m A
I'll let this ending ensue
C#m A
I've led an exciting nautical life it would seem
C#m A
and there's no better end than a death by the sea His crew sang

E A
Captain Albert Alexander
B A
He went down in the sea
E A
But that Captain Albert Alexander
B A
He'll go down in history

E A
That Captain Albert Alexander
B E A B E B E
He went down in the seeeee-ee--hee-hea
