The Duke's Men (Yale University's men's chorus) is performing at city hall today. One number they're doing is Seattle's official song, "Peerless Seattle."

The thing is, while there are lyrics, written in 1909, no one can find the sheet music. So, the group wrote their own tune. "The lyrics were pretty cheesy so I made it kind of epic Lord-of-the-Ringsy," says Duke Paul Holmes.

Here are the lyrics:

Seattle sits on seven hills,
Her glory is unfurled,
At her feet is Puget Sound,
Where moves The Commerce of the world.

Chorus:
Hail to the Peerless City,
Metropolis of the west,
The gateway to the Orient,
Whom grandeur hath caressed!

Her bosom's gemm'd with pearly lakes,
The mountains tower near;
The fir tree forest skirts her bound;
The beauty of earth is here.

(Chorus)

Her men and women active, proud,
Seattle build sublime,
And greater far than ancient Rome,
The matchless for all time.

(Chorus)

True love and art shall flourish here,
The heart's sweet, tender theme,
Upholders of the truth here dwell,
The dreamers of the Dream.

(Chorus)
