Chorus
Em
I lost my city in the light of day
G
Thick smoke, helicopter blades
C
Heaven and earth have never moved so fast
D
You'll never know the fear your mama has
Em
I know your father can't call anymore
G
He never meant to be a man of war
C
But we found freedom what will you do now
D
Bury the burden baby make us proud

Em
I lost my city in the light of day
G
Thick smoke, helicopter blades
C
Why would I bother to remember when
D
Our people baby die and live again

Verse
Em
Look at this one, I want you to see
G
Fashion was high, my hair was so long
C
This was maybe '73
Em
You know I have been adored by good and kind men
G
They sent their love with poetry
C
D
At night, like you, we danced to be free

Chorus
Em
I lost my city in the prime of my time
G
Mud silk and the dust of life
C
I was a diamond of the embassy
D
It doesn't matter what I meant to be
Em
Girl you come from the fortunate ones
G
Gold sky and a first born son
C
We don't have words for the way you have grown
D
We'll always feed you, you can always come home

Bridge

G
(Why would a million dare sink in the sea?)
C
(Why would a million dare sink in the sea?)
D
(Why would a million dare sink in the sea?)

Em
I don't want to say anymore
G
But I have been here before
C
I don't want to say anymore
D
Find what you need
Em
I don't want to say anymore
G
But I have been here before
C
I have earned this sorrow
D
Mine to keep

Chorus

I lost my city in the light of day
