Hello.

I am trying to find the chords for the above. The version I have heard goes:

Santyanno gained the day
Away, Santyanno
Oh, Santyanno gained the day
All on the plains of Mexico

Chorus (repeat after each verse):
Mexico, oh Mexico
Away...
Ah, Mexico is a place I know
All on...

Nassau girls ain't got no combs
They comb their hair with a kipper back bone

Them yellow-skinned girls I do adore
With their shining eyes and their coal-black hair

Why do them yellow gals love me so?
Because I don't tell 'em all I know.

When I was young and in my prime,
I'd knock them scouse girls two at a time

Skipper likes whiskey, the mate likes rum
The crew loves both but we can't get none.

Times is hard and the wages low
It's time for us to roll and go

Thank You.
