Em
When the lights were low
       B5
Came a brand new hope
           C     Am         G       D
A child of poverty, sought eternity
         Em
From the heart I spoke
          B5
Built the bridge of hope
      C    Am       G        D
In my destiny, Argentina free

[Verse 1]
Em
Darker were the pampas
Em             C5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5
Dust, poor and lone
Em                            C5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5
Gorgeous Latina, Cinderella's born
Em
Leave behind the shadows
Em                   C5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5
Walk straight to the spot
Em
Lights and movie stages
Em                C5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5
Where your soul belong


[Pre-chorus]
A5   G5    B5            E5
Argentina, here is your Evita
A5      G5     C5               B5
For the nation I will fight and win


[Chorus]
         Em
When the lights were low
       B5
Came a brand new hope
           C     Am         G       D
A child of poverty, sought eternity
         Em
From the heart I spoke
          B5
Built the bridge of hope
      C    Am       G        D
In my destiny, Argentina free

[Verse 2]
E5
Powerful her speeches
E5             C5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5
High above the crowds
E5
Illness stroke the woman
E5             C5 B5 A5 G5 F#5 E5
But the legend goes


[Pre-chorus]
A5   G5    B5            E5
