In The Heights - Alabanza
Tuning: E A D G B E
[Intro]
Bm A D A Bm
Bm A D A Bm
[Verse 1]
Bm A
She was found and pronounced
At the scene
D A Bm
She was already lying in bed
Bm A
The paramedics said that her heart gave out
I mean
D A Bm
That's basically what they said
Bm A
They said a combination of the stress and the heat
D A Bm A G
Why she never took her medicine, I’ll never understand
A
I’d like to think she went out in peace
Bm A
With pieces of bread crumbs in her hand
[Verse 2]
Bm A
Abuela Claudia had simple pleasures
D A Bm
She sang the praises of things we ignore
Bm A
Glass Coke bottles, bread crumbs, a sky full of stars
D A Bm Bm
She cherished these things, she’d say: “Alabanza.”
A D
Alabanza means to raise this thing to God’s face
A Bm A G
And to sing, quite literally: “Praise to this.”
A
When she was here, the path was clear
Bm A
And she was just here
Bm
she was just here…
[Chorus] x6
Bm A
Alaban-za
D A Bm
Alabanza a doña Claudia, señor
Bm A D G
Alaban-za, alaban-za
