There Comes Alibama Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]There com[G]es Ali[D]bama, Ali[A]bama
over the [D]sea,
There [G]comes [D]Alibama, [A]Alibama
over the [D]sea.
The fishermen of Table Bay, South Africa,
sing [G]of Alibama
[D]as a wondrous being
who brings them exotic [A]gifts.
They don't remember
the Confederate raid[D]er,
the Alabama,
that called there [G]in 1863.
We [D]could use your help
on this fine song
that comes [A]to us
through their faulty memories.
[D]Sing along, won't you?
There [G]comes [D]Alibaba, [A]Alibaba
over the [D]sea
There [G]comes [D]Alibaba, [A]Alibaba
over the [D]sea
He comes from far, led by a star
He skins the [A]waves, skillful and brave
Where [D]does he go?
No [G]one can [A]know.
Why does he come?
Love drives him [D]on.
There [G]comes [D]Alibama, [A]Alibama,
over the [D]sea.
There [G]comes [D]Alibama, [A]Alibama,
over the [D]sea.
He'll bring me spice, [G]sugar, and [A]rice
[D]He'll bring me malt, pep[A]per, and [D]salt
He'll bring me thyme, ginger, and lime
[A]He'll [D]bring me curry,
[A]coffee, and tea[D]
Here we go, all together.
There [G]comes [D]Alipama, [A]Alipama
over the [D]sea.
There [G]comes [D]Alipama, [A]Alipama
over the [D]sea.
He'll sail away out of the [A]bay,
out of our sight, into the [D]night.
Then we who stay, linger and pray
We'll watch [A]for when
he's back [D]again
There [G]comes [D]Alibama, [A]Alibama
over the [D]sea
There [G]comes [D]Alibama, [A]Alibama
over the [D]sea
Over the sea.
There [G]come his [D]water bumbleys.
[A]Over the sea[D]. the sea.
There [G]come his [D]water bumbleys.
[A]Over the [D]sea.
Thank
