Verse 1:
        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 
           C 
We've made waves to last a lifetime 
           C                         G  Bb G  G  Bb G  G 
We've been saturated, almost drowned 
       C 
We are Spanish not Caribbean 
       C 
We are human, not amphibian 
      D7 
We'll seek our fortunes on Spain's solid ground 


           G 
There's no future in the new world 
     F        C             G 
Only fools believe the tales 
       G 
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 


           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
