C G
Alberto hits his brother on the back of the head
C
looks to the north as he starts to get up
G
his brother's still sleepy grumbles it's not light yet
C
if you want a new life what's a few minutes wait
F C
darkness on the road and over the land
G C
into the laws and out of the hands
F
from those with so much
C
and no show of heart
G
you'd think it'd be crazy
C G C G C
to ask for a small part
G
spotted an eagle in the middle of a lake
C
resting on cactus and feasting on snakes
G
but the waters recede as the dump closes in
C
revealing a whole lake of sleeping children
F C
poison in the stream that flows to the sea
G C
out on the waves that crash within reach
F
of those with so much
C
and so little to fear
G
you'd think it'd be crazy
C
to be so far away yet so near
Dm F C
some say a new day will shine here
Dm F E F
over these catastrophes and horrors of misfortune
C
all across the wire
C G
Alberto y Hermano on the coyote's trail
C
and dodging the border patrol
G
out in the wastelands wandering for days
C
the future looks bleak with no sign of change
F
darkness in the eye
C
and down in the soul
G
all across the wire
C
to those in control
F
holding so much
C
with no show of heart
G
you think it'd be crazy
C
to watch it all fall apart
F G C
watch it all fall apart
