C     Gm     F

[Verse 1]
C               Gm
Alta, I want to know you
       F              
And to feel your green
C             Gm          F
I want to show you what I have not seen

[Chorus]
Eb   C            Ab    C
       Before you had a name
Eb   C            Ab      C
       Before the sailors came
F       C        Bb    C
I would fight to save you
F       C       Bb  C
I would give my life

[Verse 2]
C               Gm
Alta, now it is morning
      F
And I think of you
C        Gm         F
 I can remember the perfect view

[Chorus]
Eb   C            Ab    C
       Before you had a name
Eb   C          Ab     C
       Before I feel ashamed
F       C        Bb    C
I would fight to save you
F       C       Bb  C
I would give my life
