All the Emcoins you dove after lost all their spell
CCovered in moss walking for silver and Gblood

Em There's a piano playing on the ocean Amfloor
G between Havana and New OrCleaBm7ns
Em Drummin' a requiem for the Amdead
G and the souls hanging on every Cpoet's prayerBm7
Am Running to the Grock, Bm7 running to the Emsea

AmBlood pulsGing through their Bm7veins Em
like the Amwaves Gcrashing on the Bm7Malecón Emwall

Em Clocks stopping at twelve Am
G on the eve of a forgottenC waBm7r
Em Luis drivin' a '59 Am
G making it half way across the GCulf Bm7
Am Stranded on theG rock,Bm7 stranded on the sEmea
Am There's a wall Gin theBm7 ocean between you Emand me
Am Dreams Gof reacBm7hing dry laEmnd,
Amtalking Gto the fortunBm7e tellEmer
AmPrisoners Gpounding the jail Bm7 Em
like the Amwaves Gcrashing on the Bm7Malecón Emwall
[Bridge]
Em Someone lost an eye,
Em someone lost the truth
Em Trying to save face,
Em oh 'neath the eyes of the Virgin el Cobre
Em Shout me a line sister, shout me a line sister
Em Oh I see your hands in the air, see you drowning on the other side side
[Intro Riff] x2
[Verse]
Em"Chief's in the parish and the drummers in the square Am
EmWalkin' across the fire, walkin' across the waves" Am
Am Sinner in the rockG, Bm7 sinner in the sEmea
Am There's a sunken brGidge 'Bm7tween you and meEm
AmRunning past the Gembassy gates,Bm7 Em

Verse 1
AmLupita's 'gonna weave a Epath to the land up north

AmLooking at the Elights dancing in the sky
AmHoping for a Efallen star

AmMe consuelo viendo estrellas bailando en el puerto E

DmThough there's still this Amwave of unsettling EhungerE7 that never disappears
Am-E-Am-E [like Intro]
Verse 2
AmRigo working one, Etwo, three different jobs
AmAnd when he comes back Ehome he welds into the night
AmBuilds an air Eballoon for his pickup truck
Am'Gonna fly up and Eover the wall

Am/F Then nothing can move and Enothing can change
Spanish part
AmMe siento ese p?jaro que danza sobre el puerto E

Verse 3
AmShe's talking on the Ephone in the heart of town
AmTo her Bachata EMama in the heart of the world
AmSaying "please come Eback to Santo Domingo
AmWhy you gotta Ebe so far away"
Ref.
AmIf everything stays Am/F#exactly the same
Am/F Then no one can move and Eno one can change
Spanish part
AmAmo ver la Luna vacilando en el puerto E
DmNo one fortelling the Amdepth and type of Edestruction
DmNor the sadness Amtrapped on the tongue of EMalinche
DmQuetzalcoatl Amfeathers strewn out over the Ealtar
DmBlood running down the Ampyramid steps in the Emorning
DmCodices lost to a Amlanguage that's been Ebroken
DmThere's this growing Amsense of impending EangerE7 that never disappears

The winter is cold
But not as cold as a hand
Covering your heart
The moon is dead
Like the light in your eyes
Fading and gone
Cast out over the hills
Wandering forest and field
Still no resolve when sorrow calls
And silently takes you from here
April showers
Held up inside
For weeks on end
The moon is empty
Memories have all
Passed you on by
Medicine is slowly running out
Your breath is shallow and frail
The doctor arrives
Closes your eyes
Places two pennies in their place
