[Verse 1]
Am G/B C F
Well, I'm on the Downeaster "Alexa" and I'm cruising through Block Island Sound
G Am
I have charted a course to the Vineyard
Am G/B C F
I have guaranteed to make it on the open waters
G Am
And I'll be back that night through Montauk Sound
[Verse 2]
Am G/B C F
I have got this work to keep me rolling, so I'm moving through Nantucket Shoals
G Am
Though they say the ground fish are dying
Am G/B C F
And the state won't give you license no more to go out and fish for striped bass
G Am
So I tell the local people lying
[Chorus]
F G C C/B Am
Yes, I'm on the Downeaster "Alexa"
F G C C/B Am
And there's nothing as clear as the sea
F G C C/B Am
Tell my wife I'm doing fine on the sound
F G Am
And she'll know what that means to me
[Verse 3]
Am G/B C F
There is bay men who can tell ya of the giants that once used to swim
G Am
From the bays of Long Island to Montauk
