Hoping for a fallen star

Me consuelo viendo estrellas bailando en el puerto

Verse 2
Am E
Rigo working one, two, three different jobs

And when he comes back home he welds into the night

Builds an air balloon for his pickup truck

Amo ver la Luna vacilando en el puerto
Dm Am E
No one fortelling the depth and type of destruction
Dm Am E
Nor the sadness trapped on the tongue of Malinche
Dm Am E
Quetzalcoatl feathers strewn out over the altar
Dm Am E
Blood running down the pyramid steps in the morning
Dm Am E
Codices lost to a language that's been broken
Dm Am E E7
There's this growing sense of impending anger that never disappears
Am-E-Am-E (like Intro)
Spanish part
Am E Am E
Ninguna entrada , queda en el puerto
