[Dm] [C] [F]
[Bb] [A] [Dm] [F]
[Bb] [F] [C]
[Bb] [F]
[D] He was there [C] one [F] Sunday morning
[Bb] at the [A] corner [Dm] of the square
[F]
[Bb] In a freshly [F] pressed tuxedo [Gm] in a simple [Fm] folding [C] chair
[Dm] Just [C] after [F] curfew lifted
[A] Everything [Dm] was still [F]
[Bb] he played [Fm] his cello [C] in the [Bb] morning [F] chill
In [Dm] the streets [C] of [F] Sarajevo
[Bb] Place [A] of [Dm] flame and [F] death [Bb] this music so [F] surprising
[Bb] That the whole world [C] held its breath [Dm] and each morning [C] [F] he'd return
[Bb] To that [A] spot and [Dm] he would play [Bb] in the streets of [C] Sarajevo [Bb] every [F] day
[C]
[Dm] And every day made me wonder
[Am] Where did he ever find?
[Bb] Music [F] meets the madness [Gm] and the [Bb] courage to [C] be kind
[Dm] That long [C] forgotten [F] beauty
[Bb] He thought [A] was [Dm] blown away
[Bb] in the streets of [Fm] [C] Sarajevo [Bb] every [F] day
[Dm] [C] [F]
[C] [Bbm] [Dm]
[Bb] [F] [C]
[Bb] [F]
[Dm] Music
[C] Many was [F] the day the [Bb] soldiers asked him [Dbm] who he [Dm] was
[Bb] And they warned him of the [F] danger
[Gm] Doing [Bb] what [C] he does many [Dm] said [C] he [F] was crazy
[Bb] Risk his [A] life [Dm] this way
[Bb] On the streets of [C] Sarajevo [Bb] Every [F] day
[C] Wish [Dm] someone could tell me [Am] who is crazy who is sane
[Bb] Those who stand [F] in protest for [C] those who drop [F] these bombs like [C] rain [Dm] those who fill our [C] lives [F] with death
[Bb] This place where [Dm] children play in [Bb] the streets [C] Sarajevo [Bb] every [F] day
[Ab]
[Eb]
[Gb]
[Db]
[E] [Ebm]
[Bbm]
[Db]
[C] Music
So [Dm] I [C] come here in [F] defiance and to [A] add a bit of [Dm] [F] grace
To [Bb] try to ease [F] the awful hatred
[Bb] And the horror of [C] this place
[Dm] To [C] remember there [F] is beauty no [Bb] matter what [Dm] they say
[E]
[Bb] in the [F] streets of [C] Sarajevo every [Dm] day
[E] [Gm]
Every day I see them [F] those who will not stand aside
[Bb] Who refuse to be [F] defeated?
[Gm] [F] Rage against [C] the tide they [Gm] are the glimmer in the darkness
[F] The rolling of the stone
[Bb] Message [F] in a bottle [Gm] from the distant [Ab] shores of home
[Eb]
Every [Bb] day made me wonder
[F] Where did he ever find?
[Gm] Music made the [A] madness [F] and the courage to be [C] kind
[G] [Am] long forgotten [F] beauty
[Bb] His heart [A] was blown [Dm] away
[Bb] in the streets of [C] Sarajevo
[Dm] Belfast and Riyadh
[Bb] the streets of New [C] York City
[Dm] Bali and Baghdad
[Bb] in the streets of every [Fm] city [C] [Bb] Every [F] day [Dm] [Em] Oh
[F] [Bb]
