CORTEZ THE KILLER Indigo Girls
-----------------------------------
[Em]He came dancing across the water
With his [D]galleons and guns
[Am]Looking for a new world and a place in the sun
[Em]And on the shore lay Montezuma
With it's [D]coco leaves and pearls
[Am]In it's halls he often wandered with the secrets of the world
[Em]And his subjects gather 'round him
Like the [D]leaves around the trees
[Am]Clothed in many colors for the angry gods to see
[Em]And the women all were beautiful
And the [D]men stood straight and strong
[Am]He offered life and sacrifice so that others might go on
jam on * Em D Am * for a few times
[Em]Now hate was just a legend
And [D]war was never known
[Am]The people worked together and they lifted many stones
[Em]And they carried them across the flatlands
[D]But they died along the way
[Am]Built up with their bare hands what we still can do today
And I [Em]know she's living there
And [D]loves me to this day
[Am]Can't remember when or how I lost my way
jam on * Em D Am * for awhile...stop when it feels right
[Em]There was this man, he wasn't satisfied
He[D] crossed all the oceans
to find something else with his [Am]greedy hands and his
raping heart and his mind that said war to take everything
[Em]He's looking down now
And I'm sorry for every time I raped you
And I'm sorry for every time I sold you
[Am]And I'm sorry for every time I bought you
And I'm sorry for every time I hurt you
And I'm sorry for every time
I'm sorry for every time
I'm sorry for every time
[Em]He came dancing across the waters
[D]Cortez, Cortez
Am (stop)
What a killer
