| The hunchbacked dwarf was crying in the rooming house, preventing others from falling asleep, Em C G Em
|
| Suddenly remembering, gritting your teeth, in the smoke and darkness Am D G Em
|
| Those days when he was the captain and set off on a long journey, Am D G Em
|
| He gnawed on the mouthpiece and remembered the girl from Nagasaki. |
| C D Em
|
| And his tunic was whiter than snow, and his hand was swarthy and hard,
|
| She held tightly everything that is necessary in life.
|
| We met gentle, like geishas, port cities,
|
| Everything was high, but other people's wings were whistling past...
|
| Chorus:
|
| And the flight of the crane is just as straight, Em
|
| Like a thousand years ago, Am D
|
| The universe does not care - who is in the heavenly garden, G Em
|
| Who is on the bunk… Am D
|
| Anyway, the flight of the crane is straight, D Em
|
| Like a thousand years ago, Am D
|
| So fly away, crane, fly away - G Em
|
| Vinegar is also sweet for free - this thesis is familiar from childhood
|
| To all the smart people of the world, whose muzzles are in fat, whose right is holy
|
| Eat other people's living dreams, choking on a bloody piece
|
| Gloomy and blind, like a louse in a trench gnaws at a soldier.
|
| And with you everything will be simple and painful, like the bite of a rattlesnake:
|
| Wake up at night with the gloomy knowledge that takeoff is available.
|
| The stars will scatter towards you like a rainbow and cut your cheeks,
|
| Fly, crane, - the chest of the Universe is tight, like a tambourine ...
|
| Chorus. |
