Cordova Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][Bm][C][Am][Bm]
[C]

[Verse 1]
The [Am]volun
teers come for your pray[Bm]ers
And some souvenirs
[C]With ivory ski[Am]n and boycott lesson[Bm]s
Year after year
[C]

[Verse 2]
Well, I'm tracing your [G]face up in
[D]the space of the bottom [Am]bunk
Oh Cor[C]dova
Where [G]I cried and [D]I cried
I knew I was [Bm]trading on things
that I [C]didn't have
The things that I didn't [D]have

[Verse 3]
Now you come to [Am]me
With revolu[Bm]tion's infidel[C]ity
With blacklisted [Am]friends
and Tupperware kin
[Bm]And your big history
[C]

[Verse 4]
Well, I'm tracing your [G]face up in
[D]the space of the bottom [Am]bunk
Oh Cordova
[C]Where I c[G]ried and I c[D]ried
I knew I was trad[Bm]ing on things
that [G]I d[C]idn't have
The things that I didn't [D]have[Am]
[Bm][G]

[Interlude 1]
[C][Am][Bm]
[G][C]

[Verse 5]
I memor[Am]ize the lulla[Bm]bies
Of dwindling [C]lives
The lay of the [Am]land, the touch of each [Bm]hand
We lose by [G]and [C]by

[Verse 6]
I'm tracing your [G]face up in
[D]the space of the bottom [Am]bunk
Oh [C]Cordova
Where [G]I cried and [D]I cried
I knew I was [Bm]trading on things
that I [C]didn't have
The things that I did[D]n't have
