C   
When he was a boy
              E7
he wanted to play
Am           F/C
down by the sea

            C
At age thirteen
                E7
everyday after school
Am              F/C                
he would always sail around the lake

C
All the people would stand and stare
        E7
as he sailed around with precision and care
         C
With his bi-corner hat and the way he would stand
    E7
he looked just like a Navy man
Am                                   F/C
All the townsfolk would gather and say, and sing away

C                 F/C
Captain Albert Alexander
            G                 F/C
He'll be a brave seafarer someday
          C              F/C
But that Captain Albert Alexander
G                    F/C
He'll go down in the waves


                C
by age twenty four
                  E7
he had left the shore
Am                       F/C                
and was sailing for the Queen

                 C
On a dark starry night
                      E7
Albert awoke to the sound
Am                                        F/C                
of his Captain screaming as he was drowned


C
The navy crew was taking a lick
         E7
pirates had invaded the ship
         C
But Albert with one aimed harpoon
    E7
ignited their rum with a spark and soon
Am                             F/C
flames from the pirates away, the navy sang

C                 F/C
Captain Albert Alexander
            G                 F/C
saved his crew from slaughter
          C              F/C
But that Captain Albert Alexander
G                    F/C
He'll go down in the water

Now everyone dance
Dance. Dance.

                            C   
twenty some odd years later
                    E7
on his ship the sea slater
Am           F/C
he sailed into a mass of blubber

                 C
gazing up to the sky
                E7
stood a large walbus
Am                                F/C                
that was a hundred stories high, it meant no harm

C
the walrus was in a great deal of pain
        E7
it suffered from a tusk with tooth decay
         C
Albert threw his anchor round it’s tusk
    E7
with a little bit of pulling it was out by dusk
Am                                   F/C
the walrus thanked albert and sang, as he sailed away

C                 F/C
Captain Albert Alexander
            G           F/C
friend to sea urchin and me
          C              F/C
But that Captain Albert Alexander
G                    F/C
He'll go down in the sea


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

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

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

C                 F/C
Captain Albert Alexander
            G           F/C
he went down in the sea
          C              F/C
But that Captain Albert Alexander
G                    F/C
he’ll go down in history 

C                 F/C
that Captain Albert Alexander
            G           F/C
he went down in the sea
