 G                               A      
The continent of Atlantis was an island 
                            C
Which lay before the great flood 
                            G              D         
In the area we now call the Atlantic Ocean. 
 G                 
So great an area of land, 
              A                                     C
That from her western shores those beautiful sailors journeyed 
                                             G       
to the South and the North Americas with ease, 
              D                                 
in their ships with painted sails. 
G                           A           
To them East Africa was a neighbour, 
                              C            
across a short strait of sea miles. 
                           

The great Egyptian age is 
        G                  D           
But a remnant of The Atlantian culture. 
 G                          C
Like a child who's running wild 
                         G
Sinking deeper down the line 
                            D
I close my eyes to see the light 
     G             A
Way down below the ocean 
 C             G          D
Where I wanna be she may be

  C            G          D
Where I wanna be she may be 

           G                               A
The antediluvian kings colonised the world 
                                            C
All the Gods who play in the mythological dramas 
                             G              D
In all legends from all lands were from far Atlantis. 
 G                                       A
Knowing her fate, Atlantis sent out ships to all corners of the Earth. 
                   C                             
On board were the Twelve: The poet, the physician, 
                   G        
The farmer, the scientist, 
       D                              G                    
The magician and the other so-called Gods of our legends. 
                     A                                             C
Though Gods they were - And as the elders of our time choose to remain blind 
                 G                           D
Let us rejoice sing - dance and ring in the new age Hail Atlantis!
