'Tabbed' by Madfer39
These are the chords for the album version.
It's Hugh's version of the Louis Armstrong song, which is at the same time, a version
from an Argentinian Tango called 'El Choclo' by Ángel Villoldo.
As you might know, the first verses are sung in a mix of Spanish and Argentinian slang.
Standard Tuning. No capo needed.
Con este tDmango que es burlón y compadrito
Se ató dos alas la ambición de mi subA7urbio;
Con este tango nació el tango, y como un grito
Salió del sórdido barrial buscando el Dmcielo;A7
Conjuro extDmraño de un amor hecho cadencia
Que abrió cD7aminos sin más ley que laGm esperanza,
Mezcla de rabia, de dolor, de fe, de auDmsencia
Llorando en la inocenA7cia de un ritmo juguetDmón.
Por tu milC7agro de notas agoreFras
Nacieron, sin pensaC7rlo, las paicas y las grFelas,
Luna de chA7arcos, canyengue en las cadDmeras
Y un ansia fiera en la manera de queA7rer...
I touch your lDmips and all at once the sparks go flying
Those devil lips that know so well the art ofA7 lying
And though I seA7e the danger still the flame grows higher
I know I mA7ust surrender to your kiss of fiDmre
Just like a tDmorch you set the soul within me burning
I must go Dmajout along this road of no retGmurning
And though it Gmburns me and it turns me into aDmshes
My whole world crA7ashes without your kiss of fiDmre
SOLO
(verse 1, verse 2, bridge)
Bridge:
I can't resC7ist you what good is there is tFrying
(Por tu milagro de notas agoreras)
What good is there deC7nying you're all that I desFire
(Por tu milagro de notas agoreras)
Since I first A7kissed you my heart was yours compDmletely
(Luna de charcos, canyengue en las caderas)
If I'm a slBbave then it's a slave I want to Abe...
(Y un ansia fiera en la manera de querer...)
Don't pBbity mAe... don't pBbity mAe...
Give me your lDmips the lips you only let me borrow
Love me toDmajnight and let the devil take toGmmorrow
I know that IGm must have your kiss although it dDmooms me
It consA7umes me, your kiss of fDmire.
