There's a [G]Spanish girl with [C]ebony eyes
Selling [Em7]Cuban coffee and g[D]uava pies
While the [G]boys hang at the co[C]rner store
Drinkin [Em7]Iron Beer rollin' d[D]ice on the floor
There is[G] two old timers talking po[C]litics
About the[Em7] Bay Of Pigs and Alfa '[D]66
[G]Willie Chirino on the r[C]adio
[Em7]Che Guevara is [D]no hero
It's just another day[C] [D]
On the Southwest side[G]
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/f/franky_perez/southwest_side_crd.html )
There's a[G] soldier standing in s[C]ilk fatigues
[Em7]Dictating who st[D]ays and who leaves
While a [G]desperate man crashes t[C]hrough the gates
There's an [Em7]uprising at Guan[D]tanamo Bay
You don[G]'t know what you've got[C] till it's gone
So em[Em7]brace your freedom don't ev[D]er let it go
There's an[G] American flag waving in a C[C]uban breeze

Fidel Castro is no Jos� Martiz
It's just another day[C] [D]
On the Southwest side[G]
It's just another day[C] [D]
On the Southwest side[Em7]
It's just another day[C] [D]
On the Southwest side[G]
They were[G] born in the o[C]cean
They were[Em7] baptized b[D]y the sea
They [G]find a revolu[C]tion to fight
[Em7]Freedom in Mi[D]ami Beach
It's just another day[C] [D]
On the Southwest side[G]
It's just another day[C] [D]
On the Southwest side[Em7]
It's just another day[C] [D]
It's just another day[C] [D]
