Am
On one fine morning, I was awakened
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
         Dm             Am
One fine morning, I was awakened

            Em             Am
To find the fascists at my door
[Verse]
Am
Oh partigiano, take me with you
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
     Dm                    Am
Partigiano, please take me with you

             Em           Am
I don't feel frightened anymore
[Verse]
Am
And if I die here, oh partigiano
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
         Dm          Am
If I die here in the resistance

            Em           Am
Then please lay me in my grave
[Verse]
Am
Upon the mountain, among the flowers
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
         Dm                  Am
Upon the mountain, among the flowers

            Em           Am
Oh let me rest among the brave
[Verse]
Am
Then some day people will see the flowers
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
         Dm                 Am
People passing will see the flowers

            Em           Am
And say how beautifully they bloom
[Verse]
Am
These are the flowers of partigiano
Bella ciao, bella ciao, bella ciao, ciao, ciao
         Dm          Am
See the flowers of partigiano

                Em           Am
Who fought for freedom to their tomb
[Outro]
               Dm         Am
These are the flowers of partigiano

           Em               Am
Oh see how beautifully they bloom
