Santa Cova Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]At Pamplona we lost
more than our horses
I lost my legs to [A]the cannonballs
Is this the way they try to slow
a good man down
You could never put my spirit [D]in the ground
I was a broken down body
with a lion’s heart
Spending too much time
seeking [A]in the dark
Counting years in the scales
of a serpent’s tail
Oh righteous [D]unbeliever
Follow me
[G]

[Verse 2]
Up at the [D]Santa Cova
I left [A]my devil laying in the shade
Lit a candle for the Black Madon[D]na
I be[G]lieved
Up at [D]the Santa [A]Cova
[D]I l[A]eft my devils laying in the shade
Lit a candle for the Black Madon[G]na[D][G]
[D]I

[Verse 3]
[A]am [G]alive
[D][A]

[Verse 4]
[D]I do not want what i do not have
Counting wildflowers growing
on [A]the stony path
Dedicating prayers to pilgrims
and the animals
Little children, [D]cannonballs
When I was giving up my sword
for the life of the lord
I heard a rumour [A]coming down the line
A good intention is its own reward
Some people have a holy book
but only [D]read the spine

[Interlude 1]
Not me
[G][D][A][D]
[G][D][A][D]
[A][G]

[Verse 5]
Singing [D]I a[A]m a[G]liv[D]e

[Outro 1]
[D][A][D]
