Intro: D#m

D#m               Cm75-
Many, many years ago,
                    Bbm  
When I was a little child,
     C#
Mama told me you should know
                       G#m
Our world is cruel and wild.
                             D#m        
But to make your way through cold and heat
F7          Bb7
Love is all that you need.

G#m                  Fm75-
I believed her every word,
                     Bb7
More than anything I heard,
                        D#m     Bb7    D#m
But I was too scared to lose my fun,
Cm75-            G#m 
I began to cry a lot.
                    D#m  
And she gave me apricots -
       Bb7                  D#m
Kisses of the earth, fruits of the sun.

Chorus:
         D#m
     Apricot stone,
     B            F#
     Hidden in my hand,
     C#            G#m
     Given back to me
     E              Fm75-  Bb7
     From the motherland.

     Apricot stone,
     I will drop it down
     In the frozen ground,
     I'll just let it make its round.

     Apricot stone,
     Hidden in my hand,
     Given back to me
     E              Fm75-  Bb Bbsus4 Bb7
     From the motherland.
            D#m
     Apricot stone…

Instrumental: D#m | D#m | G#m | G#m

Now I see the northern stars
Shining brightly in the storm,
And I've got an avatar
Of my love to keep me warm.
Now I'm not afraid of violent winds,
They may blow – they can't win.

May the winter stay away
From my harvest night and day.
May God bless and keep my cherished fruit,
Grow my tree up to the sky.
Once I waved my home goodbye,
I just wanna go back to my roots.

Chorus:
     Apricot stone,
     Hidden in my hand,
     Given back to me
     From the motherland.

     Apricot stone,
     I will drop it down
     In the frozen ground,
     E                Fm75-  Bb Bbsus4 Bb7
     I'll just let it make its round.

         Em
     Apricot stone,
     C            G
     Hidden in my hand,
     D             Am
     Given back to me
     F              B7sus4   B7
     From the motherland.

     Apricot stone,
     Hidden in my hand,
     Given back to me
     F              B7sus4   B7 B7sus4 B7
     From the motherland.
             Em
     Apricot stone…
