Manuela

(início)

Em                  C           Am       Em
She curls up like a ball at the sound of thunder
F#m         Am               Em
The distant guns are closing fast
Em                  C           Am       Em
Her body's hard as stone as her heart is tender
F#m         Am        Em
Forget your past, Manuela
Em   C   Am  Em
F#m  Am  E
Em             C                      Am       Em
She finds the strength to heal in her darkest hour
F#m         Am               Em
Confronting soldiers as she sleeps
Em      C                      Am         Em
Her solitude is bold, but she fights for comfort
F#m               Am         Em
With a friend she keeps, Manuela
Am            B         C          Em
Run from the night and emerge into day
Am            B            F#m  Em
Banish those demons as you pull away
Am           B         C            Em
Weakened by flight but empowered by will
Am                           B
To live and breathe a newer day
Em                   C               Am       Em
She cries out with a plea from those burning embers
F#m           Am           Em
That took her little girl away
Em                  C       Am       Em
Standing shoulder deep in a town of rubble
F#m        Am         Em
Alive but trapped, Manuela
Am        B          C        Em
Lost in a world of unending design
Am         B               F#m    Em
We cannot find the path to travel on
Am         B         C               Em
All I can offer this brave battered soul
Am (let ring)                B
Is a weathered hand to rest upon
Em           C            Am        Em
The fires of Guernica are ablaze forever
F#m          Am            Em
Behind those dark devoted eyes
Em           C             Am                   Em
Your day of rest will come when the shells stop falling
F#m         Am        Em
From angry skies, Manuela
F#m               Am         Em
I'll tend to your heart, Manuela
F#m         Am       Em
Forget your past, Manuela
