CORTEZ THE KILLER

Em7

He came dancing across the water

D

with his galleons and guns,

Am7

lookin' for the new world

and the palace in the sun.

On the shore lay Montezuma

with his coca leaves and pearls;

in it's house he often wandered

with the secrets of the worlds.

And his subjects gathered round him,

like a leaves around the tree,

in their clothes of many colors

for the angry gods to see.

And the women all were beautiful

and the men stood straight and strong;

they offered life in sacrifice

so that others could go on.

Hate was just a legend

and war was never known;

people worked together

and they lifted many stones.

And they carried them to the flatlands,

but they died along the way,

and they built up with their bare hands

what we still can't do today.

And I know she's living there,

and she loves me to this day;

I still can't remember when

or how I lost my way.

He came dancing across the water,

Cortez, Cortez.

What a killer.
