Judy Collins - Elena
[Intro]
Dm C G Dm C G Dm
[Verse 1]
C G Dm
Elena is working on Lorimer Street
C G Dm
Directing the traffic in the sweltering heat
F C F A7
She winds through the motions, a tape on repeat
Dm C G Dm C G Dm
She's there until moonlight, making ends meet
[Verse 2]
C G Dm
Two kids in school, another dropped out
C G Dm
All drawn to darkness, futures in doubt
F C F A7
Mama's heart beating on their whereabouts
Dm C G Dm D7
And how they'll find water in the merciless drought
[Chorus]
Gm C
And she prays to you
F Bb
Your boundless light
A7 Dm D7
That one day you'll come to make things right
Gm C
Sprinkling skies of falling stars
F Bb
Where she dreams of flying
A7
Another day's gone by
[Verse 3]
Dm C G Dm
Quietly humming a spiritual song
C G Dm
The lilt of each melody keeping her strong
F C F A7
Where all dreams are possible, all doubt is gone
Dm C G Dm D7
Where instead of darkness she sees only dawn
[Chorus]
Gm C
And she prays for you
F Bb
Every waking night
A7 Dm D7
To dance the breezes as a kite
Gm C
The endless seas surround her now
F Bb
And she drifts away
A7
How she'd love to stay
[Verse 4]
Dm C G Dm
Elena is working on Lorimer Street
C G Dm
The pavement beneath her abusing her feet
F C F A7
She winds through the motions, a tape on repeat
Dm C G Dm
She's there until moonlight, making ends meet
F C F A7
She winds through the motions, a tape on repeat
Dm C G Dm C G Dm
She's there until moonlight, making ends meet
