[Verse 1]               (Starts at 1:17)
D                        A
Red-eyed and desperately sad,
            D                   D*
A girl in Colombia whispered to Cason,
    D              A                D            D*            G
"My sister is dead, my sister whose life was mine. What can I do?"
 
 
[Verse 2]               (Starts at 1:17)
           A                       G             A
Cason took her trembling hands and warmed them between his own.
 G                  A
"Water and ice," he said,
                G          A
His eyes shining. "Ice and water."
 
 
[Chorus]
D         A               D                 D*
Cason sat up with her all night. He pointed out that,
       D                     A                         D
At the festival tomorrow the Medellín night shall be a huge canvas,
          D*
For there will be fireworks,
G             A
And they will light up your eyes,
             G                    A
And you will feel more alive than ever before,
             G            A
Just as your sister would wish for you.
 
 
[Verse 3]
G            A               Bm              A
Proud as she finally, gently settled down to sleep,
       D                  G           Bm    A  D  G
In the pre-dawn quiet, he wrote her a poem.
 
 
[Verse 4]
  G     A   G      A
A clock,  a candle,
    G       A                 G
The moon is finished grieving,
    A
The hour brightens.
