Crossing Osiyeza Chords & Tabs
It isn't 100% accurate I'm kind of unsure about the intro and the part before the last
but the verses and the chorus work nicely at least when I play them.
Enjoy!
Intro: C
F Dm
Through all the days that eat away
Bb F
at every breath that I take
Dm
through all the nights I've lain alone
Bb F C
in someone else's dream, awake
Bb F
all the words in truth we have spoken
Bb F C
that the wind has blown away
Dm C Bb F
it's only you that remains with me
Em C
clear as the light of day
