Cortez The Killer (Young Neil)

Intro: Em D Am Am7 Am7* 2x Em He came dancing across the water D With his galleons and guns Am Looking for the new world Am7 Am7*In that palace in the sun On the shore lay Montezuma With his coca leaves and pearls In his halls he often wandered With the secrets of the worlds. And his subjects gathered 'round him Like the leaves around a tree In their clothes of many colours 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. repeat intro Hate was just a legend And war was never known The people worked together And they lifted many stones They carried them to the flatlands And they died along the way But 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. Outro(whistle): Em D Am Am7 Am7* G Am7*: 000213
