D 
From the ports of the west 
                   G 
We sailed into the sun, 
       D 
South America Bound, 
             G 
The journey begun, 
A             Bm        G    D 
Lights coming on in the barrios, 
G              A 
Half the world away, 
D         A          Bm        G 
Oceans to cross, and course to steer, 
        A 
All the way. 
          D 
We bought copper and ore, 
          G 
Silver and gold, 
         D 
From the mines and fields, 
                          G 
The sweat of a people was sold, 
A            Bm         G    D  
Lights going out in the barrios 
   D        G           A 
A long days labour at an end, 
D            Bm            G 
They saw the wealth of the mountains, 
             A 
Flow all the way  
        G 
to Santiago, 

        D           G 
All the way to Santiago, 
        D           G 
All the way to Santiago, 
        D           G 
All the way to Santiago, 
        A           Bm 
All the way 

             D 
And when the country was torn, 
          G 
We chose sides, 
        D 
Selling arms to the few 
                        G 
Who would hold back the tide, 
A     Bm            G    D 
Fires burned in the barrios 
G         Bm           Em 
We poured oil upon the flames, 
        D        A      Bm       G 
Selling bullets, bombs, guns and planes 
        A 
All the way. 

         D 
From the hearts of the west, 
                        G 
They’ll fly back to the sun, 
       D 
South America bound,  
             G 
The story is done, 
            A            Bm           G    D 
There’ll be laughter and songs in the barrios 
   G    Bm              A 
To echo half the world away, 
       D     A       G 
When Maria y Juan y Julio, 
D       A       G 
Felipe, Pedro y Mario, 
   D        A            G 
Isabella, y Manuel y Mauricio, 
              A 
Vengamos a la casa, 
      G 
A Santiago.
