From the recording Santocha
Lyrics
(Verse 1)
(Em) (Bm)
A hundred years of sand
(G) (D)
The iron bones still stand
(F#) (Bm)
Against ocean roars
(G) (Bm)
(Verse 2)
(Em) (Bm)
Salt eat the Robust steel
(G) (D)
The vintage blocks breack free
(F#) (Bm)
Another island in the see
(G) (Bm)
(Prechorus)
(F#m)
Santocha’s ghost of war
(E) (D)
Painted suns on concrete floors
(F#m)
Azure sky in shadowed halls
(E) (D)
A fortress for the seagulls calls
(F#m) (E) (D)
The wind sings a funeral
(A) (Bm)
--
(E)
For the kings
(F#m)
who lost it all
(Chorus)
(Bm)
The tide’s embrace
(G) (A)
Forgotten race
(Bm)
New artists are painting
(G) (F#)
Along the place
(Bm)
Does the sand give the ground
(G) (A)
To the bunkers down
(Bm)
To the santocha’s BlockHaus
(G) (A)
My holly ground
(Bm)
My holly ground
[Em/F#m/G/Bm]
(Verse 3)
(Em) (Bm)
The Wind sings of battles past
(G) (D)
Lovers kiss were poor soldiers fell
(F#) (Bm)
The sea reclaims his iron shell
(G) (Bm)
(Verse 4)
(Em) (Bm)
Sunburnt feet on rusted steel
(G) (D)
Where an army failed
(F#) (Bm)
Beach towels dry on walls of grey
(G) (Bm)
(Prechorus)
(F#m)
Santocha’s ghost of war
(E) (D)
Painted suns on concrete floors
(F#m)
Azure sky in shadowed halls
(E) (D)
A fortress for the seagulls calls
(F#m) (E) (D)
The wind sings a funeral
(A) (Bm)
--
(E)
For the kings
(F#m)
who lost it all
(Chorus)
(Bm)
The tide’s embrace
(G) (A)
Forgotten race
(Bm)
New artists are painting
(G) (F#)
Along the place
(Bm)
Does the sand give the ground
(G) (A)
To the bunkers down
(Bm)
To the santocha’s BlockHaus
(G) (A)
My holly ground
(Bm)
My holly ground
