Chords with lyrics

D MajorD
From the ports of the west
          G+G
We sailed into the sun,
    D MajorD
South America Bound,
       G+G
The journey begun,
A augmentedA       B minorBm    G+G  D MajorD
Lights coming on in the barrios,
G+G       A augmentedA
Half the world away,
D MajorD     A augmentedA     B minorBm    G+G
Oceans to cross, and course to steer,
    A augmentedA
All the way.
     D MajorD
We bought copper and ore,
     G+G
Silver and gold,
     D MajorD
From the mines and fields,
             G+G
The sweat of a people was sold,
A augmentedA      B minorBm     G+G  D MajorD
Lights going out in the barrios
  D MajorD    G+G      A augmentedA
A majorA long days labour at an end,
D MajorD      B minorBm      G+G
They saw the wealth of the mountains,
       A augmentedA
Flow all the way
    G+G
to Santiago,

    D MajorD      G+G
All the way to Santiago,
    D MajorD      G+G
All the way to Santiago,
    D MajorD      G+G
All the way to Santiago,
    A augmentedA      B minorBm
All the way

       D MajorD
And when the country was torn,
     G+G
We chose sides,
    D MajorD
Selling arms to the few
            G+G
Who would hold back the tide,
A augmentedA   B minorBm      G+G  D MajorD
Fires burned in the barrios
G+G     B minorBm      E minorEm
We poured oil upon the flames,
    D MajorD    A augmentedA   B minorBm    G+G
Selling bullets, bombs, guns and planes
    A augmentedA
All the way.

     D MajorD
From the hearts of the west,
            G+G
They?ll fly back to the sun,
    D MajorD
South America bound,
       G+G
The story is done,
      A augmentedA      B minorBm      G+G  D MajorD
There?ll be laughter and songs in the barrios
  G+G  B minorBm       A augmentedA
To echo half the world away,
    D MajorD   A augmentedA    G+G
When Maria y Juan y Julio,
D MajorD    A augmentedA    G+G
Felipe, Pedro y Mario,
  D MajorD    A augmentedA      G+G
Isabella, y Manuel y Mauricio,
       A augmentedA
Vengamos a la casa,
   G+G
A augmentedA Santiago.
