[Intro]
Db Gb Eb
[Verse 1]
Eb
And they wonder what our parents say
Db Ab
And they wonder how we'll raise our children
Fm
And they tell me that I'm living with a monster
Cm
And they whisper that she took up with a villain
Ab
But I don't see dragon's scales
Eb Db Ab
And I don't see claws and fangs
Gb
All I'm looking at is arms that hold me
Ab
Brown eyes that understand
Eb Ab Gb Fm
And when she closed those eyes one final time no pipers came
Fm Ab Cm
But I know I got a love that's truer than a military sniper's aim
Cm
But we won't die in vain
Gdim Gdim
Tie that chain around my waist
Ab
And pull me from the bottom of the pit of hell up to your final resting place
[Chorus 1]
Eb Db Ab
Sarajevo, Sarajevo
Eb Bbm
You're the altar that I pray to
Eb Bbm Fm Ab
God is love and love is all we have
[Verse 2]
Eb
We were trynna run from the city
Db
Had the hope and the pride of the kids
Fm
People wanna put up walls to divide us
Eb
Kinda fitting that we died on a bridge
Bbm
Same souls, both sides of the banks
Eb Db
They say we're different and they're fillin in the facts
Fm
But they put the same metal in the bullets
Ab
And they put the same bullets in our backs
Eb
Kinda love that we got is one in a mill
Db
Ain't no God that I pray to would wanna kill
Fm
It's not God but it's fear and it's politics
Eb
And a Molotov that was lit with a dollar bill
Bbm
Don't say all is lost
Gdim Db
Escape this holocaust
Fm Ab
My God, Allah, my darling, star and crescent and my cross
[Chorus 2]
Eb Db Ab
Sarajevo, Sarajevo
Eb Bbm
You're the altar that I pray to
Eb Bbm Fm Ab
God is love and love is all we have
Eb Db Ab
Sarajevo, Sarajevo
Eb Bbm
You're the altar that I pray to
Eb Bbm Fm Ab
God is love and love is all we have
[Verse 3]
Ab Eb Db
Where do we come from? Where do we go?
Ab Eb Gbmaj7
You could fill up the sea with the things I don't know
Gbmaj7 Eb
But I know what I feel and I know when it's real
Gbmaj7 Db
And I hope that we heal
Ab
We're two drops of the blood and the tears
Ab
Over thousands of years of the clash of the steel
Eb
I'm not blind to the cycle
Db Fm
We’re pressed in the spine of a Bible
They define the divine by the title
Eb
But what did Christ say? To be kind to my rival
Bbm
You're my kind of revival
Gm Gm Fm
It's true ya, my favorite Hallelujah
Ab
You my you my favorite Hallelujah
