Tom: Em
Em C Am Em
She curls up like a ball at the sound of thunder
F#m Am Em
The distant guns are closing fast
Em C Am Em
Her body's hard as stone as her heart is tender
F#m Am Em
Forget your past, Manuela
Em C Am Em
F#m Am E
Em C Am Em
She finds the strength to heal in her darkest hour
F#m Am Em
Confronting soldiers as she sleeps
Em C Am Em
Her solitude is bold, but she fights for comfort
F#m Am Em
With a friend she keeps, Manuela
Am B C Em
Run from the night and emerge into day
Am B F#m Em
Banish those demons as you pull away
Am B C Em
Weakened by flight but empowered by will
Am B
To live and breathe a newer day
Em C Am Em
She cries out with a plea from those burning embers
F#m Am Em
That took her little girl away
Em C Am Em
Standing shoulder deep in a town of rubble
F#m Am Em
Alive but trapped, Manuela
Am B C Em
Lost in a world of unending design
Am B F#m Em
We cannot find the path to travel on
Am B C Em
All I can offer this brave battered soul
Am (let ring) B
Is a weathered hand to rest upon
Em C Am Em
The fires of Guernica are ablaze forever
F#m Am Em
Behind those dark devoted eyes
Em C Am Em
Your day of rest will come when the shells stop falling
F#m Am Em
From angry skies, Manuela
F#m Am Em
I'll tend to your heart, Manuela
F#m Am Em
Forget your past, Manuela
