Soldatino Nicos Lullaby chords by Paola Bennet

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

             A                 E
Close your eyes, I know what you see
               Bm                        E
The darkness is high, and you're in ten feet deep
               A                           E
But we've survived more terrible monsters than sleep
             Bm                           E
And you know I will be here to tell you to breathe


E  Esus

Bm        A      E       E Esus
  Tu sei il mio soldatino (you're my little soldier)
Bm       A     E         E Esus
  La ragione per cui vivo (the reason I live)
Bm A             E
   Non ti scordar di me (don't forget me)
Bm           A     E
  Io veglierò su di te (I'm watching over you)

           A                                E
Stumbling lost, the last choice of all that you meet
          Bm       A                 E
It's the cost of ruling those 'neath your feet
              A                                 E
Paths you've crossed, and trust you're trying to keep
         Bm       A                           E
You're exhausted, listening for a voice that can't speak


(Ma nico, mio caro)


Bm        A      E       E Esus
  Tu sei il mio soldatino (you're my little soldier)
Bm        A      E       E Esus
  La ragione ho vissuto (the reason I lived)
Bm A             E
   Non ti scordar di me (don't forget me)
Bm            A      E
  Io veglierò su di te (I'm watching over you)


        A                        E
So you run, through shadows you roam
        Bm                                   E
Seams undone by the love you thought you could own
              A                              E
But he's just one of many that you might call home
           Bm                                    E
And maybe someday, the bitter will fade from your bones

E  Esus

Bm       A    E        E Esus
  Eri il mio soldatino (you were my little soldier)
Bm       A         E     E Esus
  Ora un principe oscuro (now, a dark prince)
Bm             A           E
  Ma anche per te, c'è una luce (But even for you, there is a light)
Bm                A         E
  Che ad un'altra vita ti conduce (that leads you to another life)

E  Esus  A
