The Riverbed Chords

(ver. 1)
Madrugada
[Intro]
Am

[Verse 1]
Am           C            Em          Am
Moon, how it falls on the field down among us
Am                C            Em         Am
Rain falls on the king and his men on the riverbed
Am          C          Em        Am
Now, now we meet after all these years

[Chorus 1]
C         Em             Am
Do you my king, do you remember me?
C                Em     Am
Yeah, I see your face before me now
C                     G                      F                Am
And I'm telling you tonight that I know we belong beyond this life
C                     Em                             Am
The war has taken its turn and it ain't ever turning back

[Verse 2]
Am             C
I grew to be a man
          Em           Am
A man who grew to be a king
Am               C
Got a job at the mill
             Em                Am
And when the war came I signed up for you
                       C             Em          Am
Every day now I send a letter to the people back home

[Chorus 2]
C             Em                         Am
Oh, I bet you long for the life that you lived
C                   Em                       Am
Me and myself I got nothing to lose but this war
C                       G                        F
And I'm telling you the war that I fought It was wrong
            Am
And we must die
C                       Em                    Am
Well now the shells are hammering down on the riverbed

[Interlude]
Em Am
Em Am

[Verse 3]
Am                     C           Em                Am
Drums roll and we must go, we must go, the enemy is upon us
Am             C        Em               Am
Rise from your knee and now, pull to the bridge

[Chorus 3]
C                 Em                      Am
Oh, brother don't turn, cause I'm right behind you now
C         Em                 Am
Go on, go on, on up from the riverbed
C                       G                        F
For I'm telling you the war that I fought It was wrong
            Am
And we must die
C                          Em                  Am
It doesn't matter much now anyway, tonight we unite

[Coda]
Dm                                                     Am
And when we're pushing through, I turn around one last time
Dm                                                       Am
And through the fire and the rain I see the king's white flag
Em
The king lives on, but everyone
          Am
Everybody dies
