Written by Jimi Hendrix

	  		
Intro: Ab Db Ab Ab Db Ab Db Ab Db C 


Db                                 Cm 
Hurray, I awake from yesterday   Alive, but the war is here to stay 
 B 
So my love, Catherina and me, 
  Bb 
decide to take our last walk through the noise to the sea 
A                             Ab 
Not to die but to reborn,  away from lands so battered and torn 
  Ab        Db      Ab Db C 
Forever, forever 
 Db 
Oh say, can you see it's really such a mess  
          Cm  
  Every inch of Earth is a fighting nest 
       B 
Giant pencil and lipstick tube shaped things, 
   Bb 
Continue to rain and cause screaming pain 
           A 
And the arctic stains from silver blue to bloody red as our  
 Ab                                              Abm    Db       Abm    Db 
feet find the sand,  and the sea is straight ahead, straight up ahead 
      Dbm                      Abm           B       
Well it's too bad that our friends, can't be with us today 
  Gb 
Well it's too bad 
   Dbm               Abm 
The machine, that we built, 
   B                   Gb 
would never save us', that's what they say 

That's why they ain't coming with us today 
                          Dbm                     Abm 
And they also said it's impossible for a man to live and breathe under 
               B 
water,      forever, was their main complaint 
 Gb 
And they also threw this in my face, they said: 
  Dbm                             Abm 
Anyway, you know good and well it would be beyond the will of God, 
  B                                 Gb 
and the grace of the King grace of the King  Yeah, yeah 

Db Ab B Gb  Db Ab B Gb   

  Db 
So my darling and I make love in the sand, 
   Cm 
to salute the last moment ever on dry land 
   B 
Our machine, it has done its work, played its part well 
           Bb 
Without a scratch on our bodies and we bid it farewell 
   A 
Starfish and giant foams greet us with a smile 
    Ab 
Before our heads go under we take a last look at the killing noise 
  Abm                    Db            Abm         Abm Db... 
Of the out of style, the out of style, out of style 
   Db                                    Cm 
So down and down and down and down and down and down  we go 
   B                                Bb 
hurry my darling we mustn't be late for the show 
   A                                  Ab 
Neptune champion games  to an aqua world that's so very dear 
  Gb                                    Ab      B   Gb       Ab 
right this way smiles a mermaid I can hear atlantis full of cheer 
 Abm Db    Abm                 Db     Abm                       Db  Abm-Db    
          atlantis full of cheer i can hear atlantis full of cheer
