Elephant Laleh
(VERSE 1)
A D G D (2x)
[Bm] [G] [Em] [D]
[D]I hear the children play
with the guards of the j[Em]ail
with the guards of the jail
w[Bm]ith the guards of the ja[D]il
[D]I'm thinking of a new name
That I could give mys[Em]elf
O[Em]ne day I'll be myself
O[A]ne day I'll be my o[D]wn
[D]It's been forty long years
In the desert I have b[Em]een
I've even hit the devil's n[D]ose
[D]In the desert I've grown
(CHORUS)
H[D]ave a good day brother
Me and your si[G]ster will rise up
Like an elephant from the m[A]ud
In your car[D]efree sleep
We will b[D]reak free, we will b[Bm]reak free
H[D]ave a good day brother
Me and your li[G]ttle bro will rise up
Like an elephant from the st[A]orm
In your car[D]efree sleep
We will b[D]reak free, we will b[Bm]reak free
(VERSE 2)
A[D]nd the city will be reborn
And the streets will be wa[Em]shed
M[D]ay the streets be clean and w[Em]ashed
[G]May the streets be clean and wa[D]shed
A[D]nd we will wave our hand
And everybody will forgive the p[Em]ast
A[D]nd everybody will forgive the p[Em]ast
A[D]nd as the woman said
That day when I was crying [Em]out
[Em]God puts his diamonds in the s[Bm]and
But then he always takes them ba[D]ck
(Chorus)
H[D]ave a good day brother
Me and your si[G]ster will rise up
Like an elephant from the m[A]ud
In your car[D]efree sleep
We will b[D]reak free, we will b[Bm]reak free
H[D]ave a good day brother
Me and your li[G]ttle bro will rise up
Like an elephant from the st[A]orm
In your car[D]efree sleep
We will b[D]reak free, we will b[Bm]reak free
[D]Have a good day brother
Me and your si[G]ster will rise up
Like an elephant from the m[A]ud
In your car[D]efree sleep
We will b[D]reak free, we will b[Bm]reak free
H[D]ave a good day, ha[D]ve a good day brother
[G]Me and your
[A]Sister will rise up from the [Bm]mud
(OUTRO)
I[A]'m thinking of a [D]new n[Bm]ame
That [D]I could give myself
One day I'll be my[A]self
[G]Oh, I'll [D]be my own
