Bm F F#
I hope they're doing OK
Bm F F#
I left my wife and kids back in LA
Bm F
I was no good at playing house
F# Bm
So I started heading south
F# G F F#
A busboy said "You best keep away
Bm
From the water"
F F#
La Barra Zona Rosa was my home
Bm F F#
Some guys they never heard the phrase "when in Rome"
Bm F
Well she knifed that stupid sailor
F# Bm
Now he's gonna need a tailor
F# G F F#
For his very special day away
Bm
From the water
(switch to B major)
B E F#
I thought it would be very nice
B E F#
To go downtown and see the bull fight
B D F#
But the beast had not a chance
G F F#
When I saw the lance
B E F#
I heard the sound of a Volkswagen
B E F#
They tied his body to the bumper and started dragging
B D F# G F F#
I saw the blood separate away
Bm
From the water
I hope they're doing OK
I left my wife and kids back in LA
I was no good at killing
So I started up gin milling
And I still just keep away (to this day)
From the water
