[Verse 1]
                F#
The nights grow cold
              Bbm             F#
My search for gold is leading nowhere
                        Bbm
Whichever lonely road I take
            F#
It seems to go nowhere
       E                             F#
It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow
             C#
How can I display what I know I'm worthy of
                    F#
When they turn me away


[Chorus 1]
                               Bbm
The doors are closed to such as I
           F#
A boy from nowhere
                            Bbm              F#
But not to those who merely buy the right to go where
           E                          F#
They'll be met with respect, not humiliation
                 C#
A man's place on earth
                                     F#
I have come to realize is decided by birth


[Pre-Chorus 1]

So what's the future
                  C#
No matter where I go
               F#      E    A
I will still belong in Andalusia
      E
Where we don't know where
                        A
The next penny's coming from
            C#
Something's wrong


[Chorus 2]
             F#              C#
I'm bound to Spain, I won't remain
           F#
A boy from nowhere
                            C#
There has to be a place for me
           F#
And I must go there
         A     E                     C#    F#
I don't fantasize, unlike a million others
         G#      F#
Who must bow and scrape
       B         C#
For my one means of escape
                 F#
Is to flourish a cape


[Verse 2]
               F#
I'll fight all odds
              C#             F#
And fight the Gods if they oppose me
                            C#
I have to win, I won't give in
            F#               A         E
No one who knows me would expect me to fail
                  C#    F#
For the want of trying
      G#   F#
Not a man alive
       B      C#
Had to beg or steal or fight
                    F#
More than me to survive


[Pre-Chorus 2]
   C#         F#
So what's the future
                  B
No matter where I go
       C#      F#      E   A
I will still belong in Andalusia
                            D
Where good, honest men grow weak
         E         A
And the rich grow strong
C#         C#7
Something's wrong


[Chorus 3]
        F#            C#
Another dawn, another boy
           F#
A boy from nowhere
                    C#
My destiny will guarantee
           F#
And I must go there
       E          G#m                 F#
It's a fight to survive just until tomorrow
         B        F#    B
One more mouth to feed
        C#                    F#
And the way things are 'round here
           C#              F#
That's the last thing they need
