F#m A E
Oh Santiana gained the day
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Napoleon of the West they say
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Chorus]
F#m A E
Well heave her up and away we'll go
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Heave her up and away we'll go
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Verse]
F#m A E
She's a fast clipper ship and a bully good crew
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
And an old salt Yank for a captain too
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Chorus]
F#m A E
Well heave her up and away we'll go
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Heave her up and away we'll go
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Verse]
F#m A E
Santiana fought for gold
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Around Cape Horn through the ice and snow
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Chorus]
F#m A E
Well heave her up and away we'll go
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Heave her up and away we'll go
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Verse]
F#m A E
'Twas on the field of Molly-Del-Rey
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus E
Well both his legs got blown away
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Chorus]
F#m A E
Well heave her up and away we'll go
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Heave her up and away we'll go
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Verse]
F#m A E
It was a fierce and bitter strife
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
That General Taylor took his life
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Chorus]
F#m A E
Well heave her up and away we'll go
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
Heave her up and away we'll go
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
[Outro}
F#m A E
Santiana now we mourn
A E
Away Santiana
E Esus4 E
We left him buried off Cape Horn
F#m E F#m
Along the plains of Mexico
