Indigo Girls – Cordova (Ukulele)

Am                           Bm
The volunteers come for your prayers

              C
and some souvenirs,

           Am                 Bm
With ivory skin and boycott lessons

           C
Year after year.

G                                    D
Well I'm tracing your face up in the space 

              Am
of the bottom bunk,

       C
Oh Cordova.

G                    D
Where I cried and I cried,

                    Am                       C
I knew I was trading on things that I didn't have,

                         D
The things that I didn't have.

Am
Now you come to me

          Bm              C
With revolution's, infidelity,

                 Am                     Bm
With blacklisted friends and tupperware kin,

                C
And your big history.

                      G               D
Well I'm tracing your face up in the space 

              Am
of the bottom bunk,

   C
Oh Cordova.

G                   D
Where I cried and I cried,

                    Am                       C
I knew I was trading on things that I didn't have,

                         D
The things that I didn't have.

Am                Bm
I memorize the lullabies

              C
of dwindling lives.

               Am                      Bm
The lay of the land, the touch of each hand

               C
We lose by and by.

                 G              D                  Am
I'm tracing your face up in the space of the bottom bunk,

      C
Oh Cordova.

        G           D
Where I cried and I cried,

             Am                              C
I knew I was trading on things that I didn't have,

                         D
The things that I didn't have.
