(ver. 1)
Portugal The Man
Intro: (play root note, then strum)
G  Bm  G  Bm  G  Bm  G  Bm

G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine

             G    D
All we could do


Em
No shakes or coughs or burst relief

   Bm
Or lists of all our things

     C              G       D
Just minutes making minds


G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine

             G    D
All we could do

Em
But the makers never made

    Bm
The comers never came

    D
But I still felt that awful news


       Em
It was patience that we had

        Bm
And the miles we had left

     D
That held us there until we could let go


G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine

             G           D
And it'll be over soon

Em
No moon children or people's sun

   Bm
Or ringing in my ears

     D
When I still felt that awful news


       Em
It was patience that we had

        Bm
And the miles we had left

     D
That held us there until we could let go


       Em
It was patience that we had

        Bm
And the miles we had left

     D
That held us there until we could let go


G             Bm               C
I was born in nineteen eighty-nine

             G    D
All we could do

Em     Bm
Not in birth or body

C                 G     D
But only in our minds

Em     Bm
Not in birth or body

D
I still felt that awful news


       Em
It was patience that we had

        Bm
And the miles we had left

     D
That held us there until we could let go


       Em
It was patience that we had

        Bm
And the miles we had left

     D
That held us there until we could let go
