[Intro]
C
[Verse 1]
C Am
For seven years I've been in here
F G
Seven years down in the hole, they said
C Am
"Your watch, your glasses and your wedding ring
F G
You won't need them anymore."
[Bridge]
Em B
I felt abandoned, I felt cast aside
Bbm B
So where is God who never sleeps?
E C Am G
I heard a voice say, "Why do you cry?"
F G
Then I found my inner peace
[Instrumental]
C
[Verse 2]
C Am
Ninoy, you were my first love
F G
But you said I was too tall
C Am
The heart gets stronger and grows colder
F G
For the Rose of Tacloban
[Bridge]
Em B
I begged to God could he forgive me now?
Bbm B
And take back all those things I said
E C Am G
This moment was a gift from above
F G
Maybe it's some kind of test
[Chorus]
E Am
Santo Niño, Santo Niño
E Am
Take good care of him
E Am
Santo Niño, Santo Niño
E Am
Take good care of him
[Instrumental]
C
[Verse 3]
C Am
Ninoy, remember a long time ago
F G
You used to walk me to my home?
C Am
Who set you free? Who built this hospital?
F G
You think I hate you but you're wrong
[Bridge]
Em B
For seven years I wore this crucifix
Bbm B
A necklace that watched over me
E C Am G
Face to face with mortality
F G
I let go of all my fears
[Verse 4]
C Am
Now my husband he might hate you
F G
But you know I saved your life
C Am
Ninoy, don't be a hero
F G
I beg you, don't get on that flight
[Chorus]
E Am
Santo Niño, Santo Niño
E Am
Take good care of him
E Am
Santo Niño, Santo Niño
E Am
Take good care of him
[Chorus]
E Am
Santo Niño, Santo Niño
E Am
Take good care of him
E Am
Santo Niño, Santo Niño
E Am
Take good care of him
