Gringo In Belize Cifras

[Intro]
Bb
 
[Verse 1]
Bb
Well he came down on vacation, 'cause he liked the tropic sun
                          F
Margaritas and the music, made it all seem fun
  Eb                              Bb        Cm
He bought a piece of heaven on the Carribean seas
       Bb           F         Bb
He's a happy little camper in Belize
Bb
He began to build a condo, but the labor cost was high
                                  F
His partner stole his money, that left him high and dry
    Eb                                 Bb              Cm
His land is still a mudhole, where you sink up to your knees
         Bb           F         Bb
And he's just another gringo in Belize
 
[Chorus]
Eb                                     Bb
He's a planner, he's a dreamer, he's a sordid little schemer,
F                                  Bb
Seems to think that money grows on trees
Eb                                  Bb
He's a whiner, he's a loser, he's a pothead, he's a boozer,
     F                      Bb
He's just another gringo in Belize
 
[Verse 2]
Bb
Well he used to have a girlfriend that now he can't afford
                                 F
Since one of his investments got busted at the border
   Eb                          Bb                   Cm
He wasted all his money paying bribes and fines and fees
         F                      Bb
And he's just another gringo in Belize
Bb
So he sold his motorcycle, somebody stole his boat
                                    F
They ran it on the reef and now the damn thing just won't float
    Eb                             Bb                 Cm
The only thing's that free is mud, mosquitoes and the breeze
         F                      Bb
And he's just another gringo in Belize
 
[Chorus]
Eb                                     Bb
He's a planner, he's a dreamer, he's a sordid little schemer,
F                                  Bb
Seems to think that money grows on trees
Eb                                  Bb
He's a whiner, he's a loser, he's a pothead, he's a boozer,
     F                      Bb
He's just another gringo in Belize

[Verse 3]
Bb
Now he'll drink a beer for breakfast, he'll chase it with rum punch
                                   F
He's smoking up his dinner, he's a snorting up his lunch
          Eb                               Bb                Cm
He's been wasted on the mainland, now he's stoned out in the Cayes
         F                      Bb
And he's just another gringo in Belize
 
[Chorus]
Eb                                     Bb
He's a planner, he's a dreamer, he's a sordid little schemer,
F                                  Bb
Seems to think that money grows on trees
Eb                                  Bb
He's a whiner, he's a loser, he's a pothead, he's a boozer,
     F                      Bb
He's just another gringo in Belize
     F                      Bb
He's just another gringo in Belize
F                                           Bb
Sounds like a pretty good goddamned life to me
