Intro:
D C D CaddD
Once there was an Inca Queen 
She gazed at her sundial
all around he workers raised 
golden idols to her smile 
the waiting years weren't hard to see 
behind the tears of Mercury 
          
she spoke of silver from the sky 
and many floating safetyboats
to pick them up when they would fly 
far above their dreams and hopes 
and they a mountain city raised 
where their queen above the clouds 
could watch out         
Dm7 C/D Dm7 Bb/C C
Dm7 C/D Dm7 Bb/C C
Inca Queen has, Inca Queen has come
Dm7 C/D Dm7 C/D Bb/C
out in the jungle the drums were heard, Inca Queen has come
Dm7 C/D Dm7 C/D Bb/C
from the biggest elephant to the smallest bird, Inca Queen has come
C/D Dm7 C/D Bb/C
she spoke of silver from the sky Inca Queen has come
C/D Dm7 C/D Bb/C
to pick them up when they would fly Inca Queen has come
Once there was an Inca Queen 
She gazed at her sundial
all around he workers raised 
golden idols to her smile 
and though the air was thin and cold 
soon the day had come the queen had told
          
Dm7 C/D Dm7 Bb/C C
Dm7 C/D Dm7 Bb/C C
Inca Queen has Inca Queen has Inca Queen has come
