Re: -MacKenna's Gold - by Jose Feliciano

I have pasted the lyrics for you
But i dont have the guitar chords
If you have please give me

Old Turkey Buzzard
Old Turkey Buzzard
Flying, flying high

He's just awaiting
Buzzard's just awaiting
Waiting for something down below to die
Old buzzard knows that he can wait

'Cause every mother's son has got a date
- a date with fate, with fate
He sees men come he sees men go
crawling like ants on the rocks below
The men who scheme, the men who dream and
die for gold on the rocks below

Gold, gold, gold
They just got to have that
Gold, gold, gold
They'll do anything for gold

"A thousand years ago, in the Southwest,
there was an Apache legend.
It told about a hidden canyon, guarded
by the Apache gods and rich with gold.
As long as the Apaches kept the canyon
a secret and never touched the gold...
...they would be strong, powerful.
That was the legend.
When the Spanish Conquistadores came,
they searched for that canyon.
They called it "Canyon Del Oro",
meaning Canyon of Gold.
But they never found it.
Three hundred years later,
the Americans came.
They heard about the legend, but they
called the canyon, "The Lost Adams".
That was because a man named Adams
saw it once, or so he said.
But whether he did or not,
he never saw anythin' again...
...because the Apaches
burned out his eyes.
Everybody knew about that legend
and a lot of people believed it.
Canyon Del Oro. The Lost Adams.
And then for a while there, back in 1874,
they called it, "Mackenna's Gold"."

Old buzzard knows that he can wait
'Cause every mother's son has got a date
- a date with fate, with fate
He sees men come he sees men go
Crawling like ants on the rocks below
A wiff of gold and off they go to die
Like rats on the rocks below

Gold, gold, gold
They'll do anything for gold
Gold, gold, gold
They'll have Mackenna's Gold"
