SKETCHES OF SPAIN

INTRO :
Bass B D E
and the piano and guitar reply with Em

Em D
The streets of Barcelona are filled with blood and rain
C
The war is rolling over Spain
Em D
Men and women running with sticks of dynamite
C
Storming stone buildings in the middle of the night
Em D
In the window near the last 'O' of the sign 'Hotel Colon'
C
Machine guns sweep the quare for fun
Em
The rich draw the steel curtains
D
The poor just lock the door
C
They don't want this war no more

Em D C
It never never never never never stops never stops
Em D C
It never never never never never stops never stops

Bass B D E
and the piano and guitar reply with Em


Em D
In the hills round Zaragoza we're waiting to attack
C
A knot of dirty men that shiver round their flag
Em
The boredom and the lack of sleep
D
The tin cans in the mud
C
And red is the colour of our blood

Em D C
We never never never never never stop, never stop
Em D C
We never never never never never stop, never stop

Only bass (B D E) I have seen the trenches and the blankets on dirt
(or guitar Em) I have seen the tears upon a farewell letter
I have seen the faces that no bullet can hurt
I have seen the spirit that no bomb can shatter
