[Verse 1]

Am Dm Am E Am

Stagod nocas da zapevam vucice na sevdalinku

Dm G C

Usnuo sam cobanicu uplakanu u sljiviku

Grom udari, planu seno, rasturi se stado njeno

E F Dm Am Dm Am E Am

Zaplete se dim na uvojku, rece da se zove Bosna, cudno ime za devojku

Nekom Drina tece desno... Nekom Drina lijevo tece...

Sve da tece u dubinu na dve pole svet da sece

E F Dm G C

Znam tajni gaz moje lane... most se pruzi gde ja stanem

Sve da vuku me konji vrani... Nema meni jedne strane dok si ti na drugoj strani

Osta ovaj stari kompas u grudima, a po polju nikli zabrani

Crne senke sto se gnezde u ljudima nadlecu me kao gavrani

Nekada sam putovao po mjesecu kroz vilajet pun hajducije

A sada me oci ljudske plase vise nego vucije

[Verse 3]

Am Dm Am E Am

Stoputa su prijatelji u molitvi pomenuti

Dm G C

Dal ce mi se radovati ili glavu okrenuti

E F Dm G C

Šta slagati, sta im kasti, svet ne mozes pesmom spasti

E F Dm Am Dm Am E Am

Njine brige me i nocas brinu, dok se spremam na put kuci, na put kuci u tudinu

[Bridge 3]

E Dm

Svetom smo se rasipali ko derdani, nosili nas nebom cilimi

G C E

Da li su to stvarno bili bolji dani ili smo to bolji bili mi

Dm E Am F

Nekad smo se bratimili po pogledu sluteci da isto sanjamo

Dm E Am

I bogu je prosto bilo krstimo l' se ili klanjamo
