Brooke Fraser - Albertine
Standard tuning. Capo 3rd fret.
{INTRO}
{VERSE 1}
I am sitting still
I think of Angelique
Her mother's voice over me
And the bullets in the wall where it fell silent
And on a thousandth hill
I think of Albertine
There in her eyes what I don't see
With my own.
{CHORUS}
Rwanda
Now that I have seen
I am responsible
Faith without deeds is dead
Now that I have held you
In my own arms
I cannot let go 'til you are
{VERSE 2}
And I am on a plane
Across a distant sea
But I carry you in me
In the dust on, the dust on
The dust on my feet
{CHORUS}
{BRIDGE}
I will tell the world
I will tell them where I've been
I will keep my word
I will tell them Albertine
{CHORUS}
{VERSE 3}
And I am on a stage
A thousand eyes on me
I will tell them, Albertine
I will tell them, Albertine
