No Gringo Chords & Lyrics by Vienna Teng
No Gringo
guitar chords lyrics
**Capo 3**
Am - C
Am
Father says head down
C
We don't want them finding you
Am
Mother says practice now
C
All the words you know
Dm Am
Oh, Arizona's burning
C G F
They say the fence turned round
Am
Now the razor wire keeps us out
Am - C
Am
Mother says with luck
C
We'll sleep under a roof tonight
Am
Father says in the truck
C
We'll be crushed in tight
Dm Am
Oh, Chicago don't forget me
C G F
As the miles between us grow
G Am
Keep the maple tree carved with the name of my love
Bb C F
The hills we would sled race down
Bb C F G
Lake Michigan stay endless and painted in sky
Goodbye
Am
Mother says years ago
C
The whole world was ours to rule
Am
Father says let it go
C
Those days are gone for good
Dm Am
All the signs read no gringo
C G F
But somehow we'll find our way
G Am
Maybe waiting at dawn by the factory doors
Bb C F
Sunburnt and bent in the fields
Bb C
Hey, don't turn us in
F G
We'll be silent as the grave
E
As time
Am Dm � Am
F C G
Am Dm � Am
F C G
Am
No gringo
Dm Am
No gringo aqui
F C G
Words as levies against the flood
Am
Hoy, cerrado
Dm Am
There's too many to feed
F C G
Room for only our own kind, our own blood
Am Dm Am
No gringo, no gringo aqui
F C G
You have stayed in this land for too long
Am
Tan amargo
Dm Am
But there's no time to grieve
F C G
You just pack up your things and move on
And move on
Am
And move on
