        C
Oh it's great to see our homeland
        C                      G  Bb G  G  Bb G  G
Breathe the Iberian atmosphere
       C
Just because we are Hispanic
        C
Doesn't mean we're oceanic
      D7                                 G  Bb G  G  Bb G  G
Quite frankly we've had water up to here

We've made waves to last a lifetime
           C                         G  Bb G  G  Bb G  G
We've been saturated, almost drowned

Only fools believe the tales

Of the gold of El Dorado
     F       C         G
Only suckers set their sails
        C
We have seen the way the tide is turning
C
Cortez is a charlatan
       D7
We are in the ball, discerning
D7
We're anti-diluvian

Verse 2:

C
There are women who are lining
C                          G  Bb G  G  Bb G  G
Every avenue in every port
       C
Now at last we'll get to grips with
C
Things they never equip ships with
        D7
We have sailed into our last resort

Chorus:

           G
There's no goldmine in the new world
       F        C       G
It's a trick to get recruits
       G
On the boat to El Dorado
      F         C      G
We're returning to our roots
            C
We're going back to land locked ladies
C
Cortez never let them board
       D7
All in all the point we've made is
D7
We don't want to go abroad
