Armenia / Eurovision 2010

Intro: Bbm

Bbm               Gm75-
Many, many years ago,
                    Fm/G#
When I was a little child,
     G#
Mama told me you should know
                       D#m
Our world is cruel and wild.
                             Bbm/C#   Bbm
But to make your way through cold and heat
C7          F7
Love is all that you need.

D#m                  Cm75-
I believed her every word,
                     F7
More than anything I heard,
                        Bbm/C#  F7/C   Bbm
But I was too scared to lose my fun,
Gm75-            D#m/F#
I began to cry a lot.
                    Bbm/F
And she gave me apricots -
       F7                   Bbm
Kisses of the earth, fruits of the sun.

Chorus:
         Bbm
     Apricot stone,
     F#           C#
     Hidden in my hand,
     G#            D#m
     Given back to me
     B              Cm75-  F7
     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
     B              Cm75-  F  Fsus4  F7
     From the motherland.
            Bbm
     Apricot stone…

Instrumental: Bbm | Bbm | D#m/Bb | D#m/Bb

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,
     B                Cm75-  F  Fsus4  F7
     I'll just let it make its round.

         Bm
     Apricot stone,
     G            D
     Hidden in my hand,
     A             Em
     Given back to me
     C              F#7sus4/C# F#7
     From the motherland.

     Apricot stone,
     Hidden in my hand,
     Given back to me
     C              F#7sus4/C# F#7 F#7sus4 F#7
     From the motherland.
             Bm
