Atencion/alabanza [in The Heights] Tab por Lin-Manuel Miranda

G              C 
Atención, atención
G                       C
Roll down your windows
G                   C
Turn up your radios
Em                  D
Un momento, por favor
        G              C
Atención, atención
G                  C
Please drive slow
G                      C
Let everybody know
            Em                      D
Abuela Claudia passed away
G
At noon today

Bm A D A Bm
Bm A D A Bm

        Bm                   A
She was found and pronounced

At the scene
        D       A        Bm
She was already lying in bed
               Bm                       A
The paramedics said that her heart gave out

I mean
D      A                   Bm
That's basically what they said
                 Bm                      A
They said a combination of the stress and the heat
                       D         A              Bm     A  G     
Why she never took her medicine, I’ll never understand
                            A
I’d like to think she went out in peace
        Bm                   A
With pieces of bread crumbs in her hand


Bm             A    
Abuela Claudia had simple pleasures
             D          A          Bm
She sang the praises of things we ignore
           Bm                   A
Glass Coke bottles, bread crumbs, a sky full of stars
             D         A    Bm               Bm      
She cherished these things, she’d say: “Alabanza.”
           A                                D
Alabanza means to raise this thing to God’s face
       A           Bm              A         G
And to sing, quite literally: “Praise to this.”
               A
When she was here, the path was clear
             Bm       A
And she was just here
         Bm
she was just here…

[Chorus x3]
   Bm  A
Alaban-za
   D       A    Bm
Alabanza a doña Claudia, señor
   Bm  A      D   G
Alaban-za, alaban-za 
 
Bm  A
Alaban-za
   D       A    Bm
Alabanza a doña Claudia, señor
   Bm  A      D   G
Alaban-za, alaban-za
