The Downeaster Alexa — Billy Joel — Простые аккорды для гитары
Intro:
Am Em G Am (x2)
C G Am
Well I'm on the Down- easter A- lexa
C G F
And I'm cruising through Block Island Sound.
F C Dm
I have chartered a course to the Vineyard.
C G F C - F
But tonight I am Nantucket bound
F G C F
We took on diesel back in Montauk yesterday,
F G Am G/B
And left this morning from the bell in Gardiner's Bay.
F G C F
Like all the locals here I've had to sell my home,
F G Am G/B
Too proud to leave, I worked my fingers to the bone
C G Am
So I could own my Downeaster Alexa
C G F
And I go where the ocean is deep.
F C Dm
There are giants out there in the canyons.
C G F C F
And a good captain can't fall asleep
F G C F
I got bills to pay and children who need clothes.
F G Am G/B
I know there's fish out there but where, God only knows.
F G C F
They say these waters aren't what they used to be.
F G Am G/B
But I've got people back on land who count on me.
C G Am
So when you see my Downeaster Alexa
C G F
And if you work with the rod and the reel,
F C Dm
Tell my wife I am trolling Atlantis,
C G F
And I still have my hands on the wheel.
Am Em G Am (x2)
Em G D Em
Am Em G Am
C G Am
Now I drive my Downeaster Alexa
C G F
More and more miles from shore ev'ry year,
F C Dm
Since they told me I can't sell no stripers.
C G F
And there's no luck in sword fishing here.
F G C F
I was a bayman like my father was before.
F G Am G/B
Can't make a living as a bayman anymore.
F G C F
There ain't much future for a man who works the sea.
F G Am G/B
But there ain't no island left for islanders like me.
C G Am
Ya, ya, yaa aaa yo
C G Am
Ya, ya, yaa aaa yo
C G Am
Ya, ya, yaa aaa yo
C G Am
Ya, ya, yaa aaa yo
