Marrakech
View chords used in this chart
D Em Bm G Em
They found us in the courtyard at our table in the shade
D A Em G
We toasted our last few moments and then the end came
D Em Bm G Em
They took us back to the airstrip, in a beaten up old car
D A Em G
And we rattled avross the African scrubland in silence
E G E G
Our hands locked together in cold steel cuffs
E G
Sometimes I wish it was still that way...
Bridge: D A B2
...
Remark: B2 is equivalent to Bm with the little finger not being used.
