None of them
A great song from Show of Hands, recorded by them many times, I believe first in
collaboration with a Chilean folk Group with whom they recorded as 'Alianza'.
The chords here are my interpretation of that recording! Hope it works for you :)
D
From the ports of the west
G
We sailed into the sun,
D
South America Bound,
G
The journey begun,
A Bm G D
Lights coming on in the barrios,
G A
Half the world away,
D A Bm G
Oceans to cross, and course to steer,
A
All the way.
D
We bought copper and ore,
G
Silver and gold,
D
From the mines and fields,
G
The sweat of a people was sold,
A Bm G D
Lights going out in the barrios
D G A
A long days labour at an end,
D Bm G
They saw the wealth of the mountains,
A
Flow all the way
G
to Santiago,
D G
All the way to Santiago,
D G
All the way to Santiago,
D G
All the way to Santiago,
A Bm
All the way
D
And when the country was torn,
G
We chose sides,
D
Selling arms to the few
G
Who would hold back the tide,
A Bm G D
Fires burned in the barrios
G Bm Em
We poured oil upon the flames,
D A Bm G
Selling bullets, bombs, guns and planes
A
All the way.
D
From the hearts of the west,
G
They’ll fly back to the sun,
D
South America bound,
G
The story is done,
A Bm G D
There’ll be laughter and songs in the barrios
G Bm A
To echo half the world away,
D A G
When Maria y Juan y Julio,
D A G
Felipe, Pedro y Mario,
D A G
Isabella, y Manuel y Mauricio,
A
Vengamos a la casa,
G
A Santiago.
