	  Intro:  D  G(alt) D(alt) A(alt) G(alt)  D(alt2) 
 
         D                                 G             D 
Well now Billy Voltaire was a piano player up from Miami way 
 
He used to play in the bars, he could sound like the stars 
    E7                   A7 
The ladies would pay and pay 
    G                        D            C    G 
But one night he did wind up playin' in Havana town 
                   D                   A                    D 
Nobody knew, least Billy Voltaire that these were his final sounds 
 
He met up with Merrita, a dancer in from the coast 
Half woman, half child she drove him half wild 
He loved that lady the most 
But one night he did find her in the arms of shrimper Dan 
So he pulled a knife, took poor Danny's life 
Then he turned his own cold hand 
 
Chorus:  
     D           G 
     It's just a Cuban crime of passion 
     D 
     Messy and old-fashioned 
     A                                D 
     Yeah, that's what the papers did say 
                 G 
     It's just a Cuban crime of passion 
     D 
     Anjejo and knives a-slashin' 
     A                                            A-B-C 
     But that's what the people like to read about 
                   A-B-C        D 
     Up in America,      up in America 
 
(Repeat Intro chords)  
 
Well now, they never found Merrita 
Some people say she got ill 
Billy Voltaire had no one to claim him 
He was buried on Pauper's Hill 
And no one talks about him no more, it happened just a week ago 
But people get by and people get high, 
In the tropics they come and they go 
 
(Repeat chorus) 
 
(Repeat Intro chords and fade)
