Standard (EADGBE)

by the school

on the street

you were dropped off with a sign,

"this piano is free"

you didn't look free to me

cast aside

obsolete

since they canceled music class

you've been a refugee

but now I'll give you a home,

Corazon

so I pushed

and I heaved

but your weight bore down like I could not believe

had you accepted defeat?

till the crowd

gathered round

put away their goings on and hunkered down

and they were cheering you on

Corazon

cheering you on

Corazon

cheering you on

so I pulled

up a seat

and I swear I felt a pulse beneath your keys

to urge your hammers along

Corazon

hammer along

Corazon

hammer along

I was caught

I was stuck

and my thoughts kept on deepening the rut

until your first chord struck

now I search

I'm not sure

but my God you've given me another chance to learn

come on and teach me your songs

Corazon

teach me your songs

Corazon

teach me your songs

Corazon

teach me your songs

Corazon

teach me your songs

Corazon

teach me your songs
