'Tabbed' by Madfer39
These are the chords for the album version.
It's Hugh's version of the Louis Armstrong song, which is at the same time, a version
from an Argentinian Tango called 'El Choclo' by Ángel Villoldo.
As you might know, the first verses are sung in a mix of Spanish and Argentinian slang.
Standard Tuning. No capo needed.
Con este tango que es burlón y
compadrito
Se ató dos alas la ambición de
mi suburbio;
Con este tango nació el tango, y como un grito
Salió del sórdido barrial
buscando el cielo;
Conjuro extraño de un amor hecho
cadencia
Que abrió caminos sin más ley
que la esperanza,
Mezcla de rabia, de dolor, de
fe, de ausencia
Llorando en la inocencia de un
ritmo juguetón.
Por tu milagro de notas agoreras
Nacieron, sin pensarlo, las
paicas y las grelas,
Luna de charcos, canyengue en
las caderas
Y un ansia fiera en la manera de
querer...
I touch your lips and all at
once the sparks go flying
Those devil lips that know so
well the art of lying
And though I see the danger
still the flame grows higher
I know I must surrender to your
kiss of fire
Just like a torch you set the
soul within me burning
I must go out along this road of
no returning
And though it burns me and it
turns me into ashes
My whole world crashes without
your kiss of fire
Solo
(verse 1, verse 2, bridge)
Bridge:
I can't resist you what good is
there is trying
(Por tu milagro de notas agoreras)
What good is there denying
you're all that I desire
(Nacieron, sin pensarlo, las paicas y las grelas)
Since I first kissed you my
heart was yours completely
(Luna de charcos, canyengue en las caderas)
If I'm a slave then it's a slave
I want to be...
(Y un ansia fiera en la manera de querer...)
Don't pity me... don't pity
me...
Give me your lips the lips you
only let me borrow
Love me tonight and let the
devil take tomorrow
I know that I must have your
kiss although it dooms me
It consumes me, your kiss of
fire.
