    Em                              Am9
The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day
    Em                                         Am9                   Em
The blackbirds sang their songs as they always did that black-letter day
                    Am9                    Em
We passed the great gate for the very last time
               Am9
I did not look back, I knew we'd stay

Em                                Em6                Em6      G
I knew they they would not let us go leave the death strip
Em                                               Em6
I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement
                            Em6    Em  C
Suffering from the crushing weight

[Ponte]

D         C      D        B B B B B
  I knelt ground  take me home

[Refrão]

Em       Em6
Alesia, alisanos
D                C
Wake me when I'm gone
Em          G
Ianotouta, eternity
   D                Em        Em/C
Proclaim our barren sacrifice

Em                          Em6
On that ground we cherished life
            Em6    G
We embraced death
       Em                       Em6
As the children's cries trailed off
Sob yielded deathly hush

[Refrão]

Em       Em6
Alesia, alisanos
D                C
Wake me when I'm gone
Em          G
Ianotouta, eternity
   D                Em        Em/C
Proclaim our barren sacrifice

    Em                              Am9
The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day
   Em                                         Am9
As we walked the alleys like thousand times before
Am9
I knew we'd stay

Proclaim our barren sacrifice
