Crow (Letra)

Carlos Gardel

Carlos Gardel

Curso de Violão - Fórmula Violão

Somewhere on a lonely muddy country road
I heard your song, crow, for the first time.
Somewhere in the distance wicked, black and low
Made me feel as I was running from a crime.
Made me feel as I was running from a crime.

Some say she died of drowning in the river deep
Some say she died of a sudden start
Some say they found her swinging from my old man’s tree
And some folks say she died of a broken heart.
And some folks say she died of a broken heart.

I can’t believe they would pay men just to hunt me down
But silver coins to each one do they give
And by now there’s a gallows standing in the town
And I wonder how much more I have to live
And I wonder how much more I have to live.

Somewhere on a lonely muddy country road
I heard your song, crow, for the last time.
Somewhere in the distance wicked, black and low
Made me feel as I was running from a crime
Made me feel as I was running…
from a crime.

It must be strange to just fall from the stage
And snap a bone that is so close to the brain
And be attended to by so many down below
I saw a doctor tie you up from so far above
And you start singing just like light through a black floor
You start sliding like burned skin to a side door

Refrain:
But crow, when you throw yourself under
Singin’s hard when you can’t loose control
They don’t know, to them in the dark you don’t whisper nothin’
And they’re all gonna try and rip the wind from your soul

It must have been hard to be a cashier in a bookstore
And to be surrounded by the history of your true loves
And you’d get naked between the deep shelves in the backroom
And have your brain get tan by sharp fluorescent light tubes
And you start spinning like the pillars in the temple
You’d start screaming just like sister aimee semple

But crow, when you throw yourself under
The streets are hard when you cannot lose control
They don’t know, to them the dark don’t whisper nothin’
And they’re all gonna try and rip the wind from your soul
Crow

It was so sweet when you brought donuts to the junkies
Hey, you’d give us something we’d go slip into our coffee
And we’d start reading lines from poems that didn’t matter
You covered me with blankets in the chelsea hotel lobby
And i’d start reachin’ for the scar along your belly
They’d start takin’ us ‘cause winning is their hobby

Repeat refrain
