Intro:

Am

Verse 1:

 Am                         Am/G                
 I worked the fields my father worked,

 F                          E      
 From dawn until setting sun.

 Am                         Am/G                   
 My calloused hands and wind-burned face,

 F                      E      
 Have marked me as a man.


Chorus 1:

 C                       G                  
 Who has no voice, no rights, no hope,

F                       E      
 No place to call his own.

         Am           Am/G       F         E         Am       
And the skeletons,   of Quinto, call me home.


Bridge 1:

 Dm                                                   Am  
 The silver tentacles of the moon's rays haunt me,

 Dm                                       E                        
 The deathly silence of the mountains, chill me to the bone.

         Am           Am/G       F         E         Am       
And the skeletons,   of Quinto, call me home.


Verse 2:

 Am                     Am/G                  F                E         
 If I lived to be a hundred, I won't know me Papa's plight.

 Am                     Am/G               F                     E        
 The cruelty of the master's whip, the horrors of the night.


Chorus 2:

 C                         G                   
 He braved them all and stood his ground;

 F                   E        
 The bravest ever known.

         Am           Am/G       F         E         Am       
And the skeletons,   of Quinto, call me home.


Bridge 2:

 Dm                                                   Am  
 Un Oceano de verguenza incita nuestros recuerdos,

Las estranguladas, lesadillas de muerte.
 Dm                                  
 Me estremecen hasta los huesos,

                                                    E  
Y los esqueleetos de Quinto, me llaman a mi morada.


Interlude:

Am  Am/G  F  E (x2)
C  G  F  E, Am  Am/G  F  E  Am

Verse 3:

 Am                       Am/G               F                      E       
 I know that somehow, in this world, the workers must be free.

 Am                         Am/G         F                       E       
 The toil and sweat and tyranny, the fascist jeu d'es-prit.


Chorus 3:

 C                     G              F                       E      
 Will only serve to keep us down; and aid the bourgeoi-sie.

         Am           Am/G       F         E         Am       
And the skeletons,   of Quinto, call me home.
