Текст песни Nahko and Medicine for the People — Build A Bridge + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
Build a Bridge
Nahko varies where he plays the chords when he does this live. But I'm particular to play the verses as fret
chords so you can get the beat and those single strums going, and the chorus as open chords. Palm muting
parts of this song sounds sweet, too.
So in the verse:
Dm = 5th fret
Gm = 10th fret
A = 5th fret
[Verse]
Dm Gm
Said prepare me for, for long battle
A
I am a witness, hold crystal bullets
Dm
I drop the hatchet, you won't forget this
Dm Gm
Said prepare me for, for long battle
A
I am a witness, hold crystal bullets
Dm
I drop the hatchet, you won't forget this
Dm
Said, mine eyes have seen nothing but trouble
Gm
You must make peace with them gods and the devils
A
I can be rude, boy, I am not subtle
Dm
I tend to sneak in and burst all them bubbles
Dm
We are the ones, we been waiting to rumble
Gm
I torch my enemies out with a candle
A
Music is the weapon make empires crumble
Dm
We bring them bankers and wealthy to tremble
Dm Gm
What we know is what we're owed
A
Can't be too careful, shoot flaming arrows
Dm
Hitting them wicked, burning them bridges
Dm Gm
Said, what we know is what we're owed
A
Can't be too careful, shoot flaming arrows
Dm
Hitting them wicked, burning them bridges
Dm
I said I rep the misfits, (not the[?]) society
Gm
We struggle with housing, drugs, and sobriety
A
We're not from here, but born here respectively
Dm
Immigrated cause America raped my country
Dm
My bridge 'ain't built with no white-man money
Gm
I'm on Indian time, you know you cannot rush me
A
I can be vicious, malicious, and ugly
Dm
A danger to darkness, to better run quickly
Dm Gm
What we know is what we're owed
A
Can't be too careful, shoot flaming arrows
Dm
Hitting them wicked, burning them bridges
Dm Gm
Said, what we know is what we're owed
A
Can't be too careful, shoot flaming arrows
Dm
Hitting them wicked, burning them bridges, said
[Chorus]
F C
I have come to build a bridge
Dm
So come, let’s build
Build, build, build
F C
I have come to build a bridge
Dm
So come, let's build
Build, build, build
[Verse]
Dm
I said, life was pretty crazy, I was 9 months old
Gm
Yeah, mama gave me up - 14 years old
A
Said, I don't give a shit, grandmother, she was so bold
Dm
Son of that rape, my mama's body got sold
Dm
Not to say poppa didn't have a good soul
Gm
Cause he did give me the anger, I was born so cold
A
Raised white Christian in a white neighborhood
Dm
There was no bridges for me and my indigenous blood
Dm
I said I'm confused, identity crisis
Gm
Indigenous mastery is so timeless
A
Now I'm building bridges so that it will all make sense
Dm
Why I'm here with the music, so passionate
Dm
Got to ride hard or die trying
Gm
Said, I am a rain cloud, storm white lighting
A
I am relentless stop at nothing
Dm
I'm el coyote, bridges building
Dm
Building, building, building
Gm
Building, building, building
A Dm
Building, building, building
Dm
I said, I rock the one feather on me next head
Gm
Must stay humble, never be like chief headdress
A
Hang the flag upside down, I'm in distress
Dm
Never take no title out of deepest respect
Dm
Welcome to Aquarius, son, you’re a legend
Gm
Guardian of the gate, it's gate number seven
A
I tame that beast and I ride the dragon
Dm
I reincarnate as a wild stallion
Dm Gm
What we know is what we're owed
A
Can't be too careful, shoot flaming arrows
Dm
Hitting them wicked, burning them bridges
Dm Gm
Said, what we know is what we're owed
A
Can't be too careful, shoot flaming arrows
Dm
Hitting them wicked, burning them bridges, said
[Repeat Chorus]
[Verse]

Reclaim, recover, protect clean water
