For those who don`t know, this is a a-capella song and Rockapella don`t
use instruments, only their voices. So I heard the Do-it-a-capella album
and tried to get the chords. The mode is exactly the same that
Rockapella used. Enjoy it!
Title: Zombie Jamboree
Artist: Rockapella
***************
Conrad Eugene Mauge, Jr.
(3rd verse lyric by Sean Altman)
Arrangement: Sean Altman, David Yazbek & Bill Straus
Lead Vocal: Sean Altman
Verse:
A
It was a zombie jamboree
E A
Took place in the New York cemetery
Oh, it was a zombie jamboree
E A
Took place in the New York cemetery.
D A
Zombies from all parts of the island
E A
Some of them are great Calypsonians
D A
Since the season was carnival
E A
They got together in bacchanal
And they were singing
Chorus
D A
Back to back, mon, belly to belly
E A
I don’t give a damn ’cause I’m stone dead already
D A
Oh, back to back, belly to belly
E A
It’s a zombie jamboree.
Verse:
One female zombie she wouldn’t behave
See how’s she’s dancing out of the grave
In one hand she’s holding a quart of rum
The other hand is knocking a conga drum.
You know the lead singer starts to make his rhyme
While the other zombie is rockin’ in time
One bystander, he had this to say:
«It was a trip to see the zombies break away.»
SHAH! And they were singing:
(Repeat chorus twice)
A
Back to back! Everyone we sing back to back
And belly to belly then back to back
E
One two three four Hey
Verse:
What a zombie jamboree
From Times Square to the Statue of Liberty
Uptown, downtown zombie jamboree
Whoa whoa whoa, yeah yeah
There’s a high-wire zombie ‘tween the World Trades
A King Kong zombie on the Empire State
But the biggest zombies Tokyo to Rome
The zombies who call the city home.
(Hah! What they do! Huh!)
(Repeat chorus to fade)
