[Verse]
F#m Bm9
The grass was as green as it always was that sinister day
F#m Bm9 F#m
The blackbirds sang their songs as they always did that black-letter day
Bm9 F#m
We passed the great gate for the very last time
Bm9
I did not look back, I knew we'd stay
F#m F#m6 F#m6 A
I knew they they would not let us go leave the death strip
F#m F#m6
I saw the gleam in their eyes of fear and enslavement
F#m6 F#m D
Suffering from the crushing weight
[Bridge]
E D E C# C# C# C# C# N.C.
I knelt ground take me home
[Chorus]
F#m F#m6
Alesia, alisanos
E D
Wake me when I'm gone
F#m A
Ianotouta, eternity
E F#m F#m/D
Proclaim our barren sacrifice
[Verse]
F#m F#m6
On that ground we cherished life
F#m6 A
We embraced death
F#m F#m6
As the children's cries trailed off
N.C.
Sob yielded deathly hush
[Chorus]
F#m F#m6
Alesia, alisanos
E D
Wake me when I'm gone
F#m A
Ianotouta, eternity
E F#m F#m/D
Proclaim our barren sacrifice
