[ar:Neil Young]
[03:24.23]He came dancing across the water
[03:26.35]With his galleons and guns
[03:32.40]Looking for the new world
[03:35.90]In that palace in the sun
[03:39.89]On the shore lay Montezuma
[03:43.95]With his coca leaves and pearls
[03:48.25]In his halls he often wondered
[03:53.56]With the secrets of the worlds
[03:56.55]And his subjects gathered 'round him
[04:00.61]Like the leaves around a tree
[04:04.85]In their clothes of many colors
[04:08.84]For the angry gods to see
[04:13.40]And the women all were beautiful
[04:16.46]And the men stood straight and strong
[04:21.70]They offered life in sacrifice
[04:26.07]So that others could go on
[05:21.05]Hate was just a legend
[05:25.17]And war was never known
[05:29.60]The people worked together
[05:33.03]And they lifted many stones
[05:37.21]They carried them to the flatlands
[05:41.08]And they died along the way
[05:45.26]But they built up with their bare hands
[05:49.75]What we still can't do today
[05:54.00]And I know she's living there
[05:57.99]And she loves me to this day
[06:03.04]I still can't remember when
[06:07.29]Or how I lost my way
[06:11.28]He came dancing across the water
[06:49.86]Cortez Cortez
[06:51.54]What a killer
