Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D][Dm][Am][Bb][D][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
[Bm]I was
a tourist in the Andes
On my way to Tiahuanaco
Where the balance of a weeping god
Faced east to the rising sun

[Verse 2]
But I [Em]looked out the window
And [C]all I could [Em]see
Was the face of a girl
[D]She was [C]looking at me

[Verse 3]
She was [Em]beg ging for food
Then I [C]knew I had [Em]found
The weeping god
[C]In the face [F#]of a child

[Verse 4]
[Bm]As she gestures with her fingers
Her little brother [G]followed [Bm]suit
And all I did was take my camera
So the image never fades away
[D]I no

[Verse 5]
[Em]longer saw the great
[C]gate of the sun
Nor the [Em]dawn of time [D]when our
[C]race had begun
[Em]Just black eyes like starving
dogs [C]looking at [Em]me
A weeping god was all [C]I'd ever see

[Verse 6]
[D]And as I s[F#]at in contem p[Em]latio[F#]n
[Bm]bey [F#]ond all charity
Losing [F#m]the ma[F#]gic and meani[Bm]ng of living
[F#](the earth and the stars these
things are mine)
And when they've drained the
earth of all resources
We'll face the music still
For you and I shall be striking memories
In the thoughts of our
children's chil[E]dren
[D][F#]

[Verse 7]
[Bm]I had arrived at my destination
At the gate of the rising sun
We shall again regain in
sunset that balance
That we left undone

[Verse 8]
I [Em]stared at the shacks
and the [C]shanty town mess
I [Em]couldn't help but [C]to think of the West
The [Em]balance was lost and my
[C]reason went [Em]wild
As the weeping god came [C]alive in the child

[Interlude 1]

[Bbm][F#][C#][Bbm]

[Verse 9]
[F#]I began to w[C#]eep[Bbm][F#][C#][Bbm][F#]
And I re[C#]member [Bbm]the[F#]
viol[C#]ation[Bbm][F#][C#][Bbm]
[F#]Determinatio[C#]n came[Bbm],
[F#]Determinatio[C#]n,
[Bbm]Yeah![F#][C#]
