Libertad Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Crossing over the borderline,
mesmerized by freedom
Hypnotized by the city lights,
you're reaching out to meet them
Tempted away from the ones you love,
into the land of plenty
All alone in a crowded place,
at the age [G]of 120
[A]Libertad,
Liber[Em]tad, that's what
they told [G]me
[A]Libertad,
Liber[Em]tad, nobody owns [G]me
Liber[A]tad,
Liber[Em]tad, moving toward
my [G]destiny[A]
[Em]Libertad,
Libertad
Work all hours of the day and night
Making barely enough to survive
Hidden in the shadows from
your fellow men
While they don't even know you're alive
A cog in a mechanized dream machine
But none of the dreams are your own
Locked outside in the in -between
And silently longing for a [G]home
[A]Libertad, liber[Em]tad
That's what they told [G]me
[A]Libertad, liber[Em]tad
Nobody owns [G]me
[A]Libertad, liber[Em]tad
I'm moving toward my
[G]destiny[A][Em]
Libertad,
Libertad
Crossing over the borderline
La
Migra has found you at last
No final goodbyes for your family
For soon all signs of life would be past
They beat you and cuffed
you to calm you down
They beat you until you were dead
Twenty or more to just one man
And these are the last words
you said
[C]¡Ayúdame, por fa[Em]vor!
[C]¡Ayú[Am]dame, por fa[G#m]vor![G]
¡Me están [F]matando!
¡Me están [Em]matando!
Me están [Bb]matando, ya se [Em]acabó.
[G]Libertad,
[A]Libertad
[Em]That's what they told me[G]
Liber[A]tad,
Liber[Em]tad
Nobody owns [G]me
Liber[A]tad,
Libertad
[Em]Movement on my destiny
[G]Libertad,
[A]Libertad[Em]
