Verse 1
He came (E minor7) dancing across the water
With his (D5) galleons and guns
(A minor11) Looking for the new world
And the palace in the sun
On the (E minor7) shore lay Montezuma
With his (D5) cocoa leaves and pearls
In his (A minor11) halls, he often wandered
With the secrets of the worlds
And his (E minor7) subjects gathered round him
Like the (D5) leaves around a tree
In their (A minor11) clothes of many colors
For the angry gods to see
And the (E minor7) women all were beautiful
And the (D5) men stood straight and strong
(A minor11) They offered life in sacrifice

Verse 2
(E minor7) Hate was just a legend
And (D5) war was never known
(A minor11) The people worked together
And they lifted many stones
And they (E minor7) carried them to the flatlands
But they (D5) died along the way
And they (A minor11) built up with their bare hands
What we still can't do today
And I (E minor7) know she's living there
And she (D5) loves me to this day
(A minor11) I still can't remember when
