What is this place?

[Intro] [Chord: Bm - Em - A - D - G - F#7] [Bright electric Bachata guitar lead with fast runs] [Bongos and Güira enter] [Verse I] [Bm] What is this place? [Em] Where hearts drift like papel ash, [A] And a rider moves through skull-flower fields [D] On a machine built from sorrow and [G] memoria. Love hangs in the air like a [F#7] warning, And the sky drops rust instead of [Bm] rain. Even the dirt feels like it’s [F#7] listening. [Verse II] [Bm] What is this place? [Em] Where a veiled figure stands in quiet silencio, [A] Wrapped in fog, wrapped in something like per[D]dón. The flowers never bloom, [G] But they glow like they want to. [F#7] Nothing speaks here — everything remembers. [Bm] Nothing moves — everything [F#7] mourns. [Chorus] [Bm] Tell me, what is this place? [Em] Luz oscura hanging in the air. [A] Sombras whisper despacio, [D] “Vuelve… [G] si quieres volver.” Tell me, what is this place? [F#7] Nada shines, but something burns [Bm] there. [Instrumental Bridge] [Chord Progression: Bm - Em - A - D - G - F#7] [Fast melodic Requinto solo - clean and bright] [Verse III] [Bm] What is this place? [Em] Where a mariposa cuts through the light, [A] And the clocks forget what they were [D] counting. Dandelions drift like lost [G] prayers, And a blank Polaroid waits for a [F#7] name. The golden trail stretches [Bm] forward, But time bends sideways around [F#7] it. [Chorus] [Bm] Tell me, what is this place? [Em] Luz oscura hanging in the air. [A] Sombras whisper despacio, [D] “Vuelve… [G] si quieres volver.” Tell me, what is this place? [F#7] Nada shines, but something burns [Bm] there. [Outro] [Bm] [Em] [A] [D] [Guitar fades with shimmering arpeggio] [End on Bm]
