G#M D#M
I left my country when i was nineteen
G#M D#M
1925
G#M D#M
And drifted to a town on the Cuban coast
G#M D#M
Met a woman who became my life
G#M D#M
And oh when i saw her
G#M D#M
Darkness fled from me
G#M D#M
And flew like a blackbird into the sun
G#M D#M
On the day she married me
G#M D#M
Dear god
G#M
Dear god
G#M D#M G#M D#M
I remember climbing up those shoulders
G#M D#M G#M D#M
Coming up under you like a lion
G#M D#M G#M D#M
Coming down like we were dying
G#M D#M
Dear god
G#M D#M G#M D#M
But now the drumbirds come for me
G#M D#M G#M D#M
Oh now the drumbirds come for me
G#M D#M
Lord give me forgiveness
G#M D#M
For all that i've done

G#M D#M
Dear god
G#M D#M
Dear god
G#M D#M G#M D#M
I remember climbing up those shoulders
G#M D#M G#M D#M
Coming up under you like a lion
