Cuban Crime of Passion By: Jimmy Buffett 1973 Intro: D G(alt) D(alt) A(alt) G(alt) D(alt2)
Well now DBilly Voltaire was a piano player Gup from Miami Dway He used to play in the bars, he could sound like the stars The E7ladies would pay and A7pay But Gone night he did wind up Dplayin' in HaCvana Gtown Nobody knew, least DBilly Voltaire that Athese were his final Dsounds
He met up with Merrita, a dancer in from the coast Half woman, half child she drove him half wild He loved that lady the most But one night he did find her in the arms of shrimper Dan So he pulled a knife, took poor Danny's life Then he turned his own cold hand Chorus:
DIt's just a GCuban crime of passion DMessy and old-fashioned AYeah, that's what the papers did Dsay It's just a GCuban crime of passion DAnjejo and knives a-slashin' A A-B-C But that's what the people like to read about A-B-C D Up in America, up in America
(Repeat Intro chords) Well now, they never found Merrita Some people say she got ill Billy Voltaire had no one to claim him He was buried on Pauper's Hill And no one talks about him no more, it happened just a week ago But people get by and people get high, In the tropics they come and they go (Repeat chorus) (Repeat Intro chords and fade) Chord diagrams: ********************************************* |xx0787| - G(alt) |xx0-11-10-10| - D(alt) |xx09-10-9| - A(alt) |xx0775| - D(alt2) ********************************************* Enjoy!
