The Eyes Of The Children Of Maria Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
You and [G]I, we got our [A]problems[C]
You and I, we got [G]hope
And we are soon,
we will be [A]solving them
We [G]got [C]love when we get [G]cold
But the [Em]lights in the [C]distance,
in the [Em]fire burning on the shore
[D][C][D]

[Verse 2]
[Bm]
[D]I see the [G]eyes of the [F]children of [C]Maria,
look in the [G]eyes of [F]the children of Mari[C]a
I see the [G]eyes of [F]the children of [C]Maria,
[G]wai[Am]ting for the coming[G] of [Em]the [G]lord
And everybody wants to [Am]slave [A]and praise that you[Am]'re bac[C]k,
they'll shave their [G]hair
But when the angels come to [A]save my place,
they're just [C]looking for something to [G]wear
And the [Em]ships, they're sailing [C]backwards,
full of [Em]rat s, dreams and [D]shades
Of the [G]eyes of [F]the children of [C]Maria,
look in the [G]eyes of [F]the children of [C]Maria
I see the [G]eyes of [F]the children of [C]Maria,
[G]wai[Am]ting for the com[A]ing[G] of [Em]the lord[G]

[Verse 3]
[Bb]
I can't believe what I heard [F]yesterday,
[Dm]they say the dollar is bound to fall[Am][Bb]
But those books they're written [F]everyday,
[C]i see the writings on the wal[D]l[G]
Up above their [Am]goes a satellite,
[C]bouncing [G]TV shows
A good reception, [Am]man that's what you [A]got,
but what you'll [C]need, heaven [G]knows
And the [Em]pictures of the ba[C]bies,
they are [Em]frozen forever in my [D]mind[Bm]
[D]Like the eye[G]s of the[F] children of Mar[C]ia,
look in the [G]eyes of [F]the children of [C]Maria
I see the [G]eyes of [F]the children of [C]Maria,
[G]wai[A]ting for the coming[G] of [Em]the [G]lord
[Am]Eye [A]s of the hun[Em]gry and the [G]poor,
[Am]waiting for the [C]coming of the lord

[Outro 1]
[G][D]
