Freak By Night Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Anyone know the guitar chords to this little Sesame Street ditty? My googling has been unsuccessful. We all live in a capital I In the middle of the desert In the center of the sky. All day long we polish up the I To make it clean and shiny So it brightens up the sky. Rubbing it here And scrubbing it there. Polishing the I So high in the air. And as we work we sing a lively tune "It is great to be so happy on a busy afternoon." And when we're through with the day's only chore, We go into the I And we close the door. Capital I, capital I, capital I, capital I. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Freak By Night Posted October 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Or if anyone has access to a recording of it, I could figure it out. It's been a few decades since I've actually heard the song! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CatPhish Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 Is'nt it the same tune as yellow Submarine or am I remembering something else?

Freak By Night Posted October 4, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 No it's definitely not the same tune as Yellow Submarine. I remember seeing the capital I cartoon on Sesame street when I was a young one, and I thought the accompanying song was the coolest in the world. I know for sure the music is totally different from Yellow Submarine. PS. I didn't know you were expecting! Congratulations. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Velvet Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 If I recall correctly it's an acappela tune for a small male chorus.Damn good piece of educational philosophy there.Lower Case N is another fave of mine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
\/\/illy Posted October 4, 2005 Report Share Posted October 4, 2005 It wouldn't be easy but I could probably come up with a copy of this. A friend of mine made a mixed VCR tape of just all bizarre snippets of stuff he came across on TV. We'd watch it when we were in the 'mood' for some weirdness. Capital I was one of our favourites and we've been singing it ever since. Positively brilliant programming. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
