Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
[Intro]
C G Am F (x2)
[Verse 1]
C G Am F
We sing the church hymns in creole
C G Am F
Crocodiles cruise the river below
C G
The same as years before
Am F
When the missionaries landed
C G
They can make a meal out of man or beast
Am F
You know
[Verse 2]
C G Am F
When they came we layed down our spears
C G Am F
Put on their clothes held our hands in prayer
C G Am F
We lined up for rations we lined up in fear
C G Am F
Of a God we didn't understand
C G Am F
Our customs they were banned
[Chorus]
G Am
Now the songline is broken
F C
People are choking
G Am
We're losing our direction
F C
Culture is eroding
G Am
I wish I could remember
F C
What my father tried to show me
G Am
And pick up what's come undone
F G C
Jesus can you mend this broken song
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
[Verse 3]
C G Am F
For I am the song man for my tribe
C G Am F
And I've got to find the words somehow tonight
C G
For they're depending on me
Am F
To start this ceremony
C G Am F
For so long we've never done
[Verse 4]
C G Am F
So can you help me mend this broken tune
C G Am F
Do you know the words can you make them ring true
C G
There's no stars out tonight
Am F
There's no daylight yet in sight
C G Am F
For me as I lay upon this grave
[Chorus]
G Am
Now the songline is broken
F C
People are choking
G Am
We're losing our direction
F C
Culture is eroding
G Am
I wish I could remember
F C
What my father tried to show me
G Am Am
And pick up what's come undone
F G C
Jesus can you mend this broken song
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o (broken song)
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
[Bridge]
F C G Am
Broken song, when the words have been forgotton
F C G Am
Broken song, when the story has been lost
F C G Am
Broken song, when the dancing has been stopped
[Outro]
F G C
Jesus can you mend this broken song
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o (broken song)
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o (broken song)
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
(Can you mend this broken, Jesus can you mend this broken song)
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
(Can you mend this broken, Jesus can you mend this broken song)
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
C G Am F
Heyyyy-o
