{These lyrics were taken from the ZUMA lyric sheet. Words in bracketsare words sung differently on GOODFRIEND} INTRO: Em D Am EmHe came dancing across the waterDWith his galleons and gunsAmlooking for the new world And [the] palace in the sun. {chord progression follows the first verse} On the shore lay MontezumaWith his coca leaves and pearlsIn his halls he often wanderedWith the secrets of the worlds. And his subjects gathered 'round himLike the leaves around a treeIn [his] clothes of many coloursFor the angry gods to see. And the women all were beautifulAnd the men stood straight and strongThey offered life in sacrificeSo that others could go on. {solos} [Now] hate was just a legendAnd war was never known...People worked togetherAnd they lifted many stones. They carried them to the flatlands[But] they died along the way[And] they built up with their bare handsWhat we still can't [do] today And I know she [is] living thereAnd she loves me to this dayI ... can't remember whenOr how I lost my way He came dancing across the waterCortez CortezWhat a killer.
