Version 1
            [Verse 1]
  Em         Am    G Am    Em
I met her in Venezue-e-e-e-la
      G       Am     Em
With a basket on her head
Em            B         G      Am
If she loved others she didn't say
    G            Am      G     B
But I knew she'd do, to pass away

[Chorus]
 Em   Am       G       Am   Em
Pass away the time in Venezuela
Em     Am       G       Am     G     Am   Em
(Pass away the time in Venezue-e-e-e-e-e-la)


[Verse 2]
   Em       Am      G    Am Em
I gave her a silken sash of blue
  G         Am      Em
A beautiful sash of blue
   Em      B         G        Am
Because I knew that she could do
      G         Am       G       B
with all the tricks, I knew she knew

[Chorus]
    Em   Am       G      Am    Em
To pass away the time in Venezuela
     Em    Am       G      Am     G     Am   Em
(To pass away the time in Venezue-e-e-e-e-e-la)


[Verse 3]
     Em      Am      G  Am   Em
And when the wind was out to sea
     G        Am     Em
the wind was out to sea
    Em       B       G      Am
And she was taking leave of me
G             Am           G     B
I said: Cheer up there'll always be

[Chorus]
Em         Am       G       Am    Em
Sailors ashore on leave in Venezuela
Em          Am       G       Am      G    Am   Em
(Sailors ashore on leave in Venezue-e-e-e-e-e-la)


[Verse 4]
    Em         Am              G             Am         Em
Her lingo was strange but the thought of her beautiful smile
      G             Am       Em
The thought of her beautiful smile
     Em            B           G       Am
Will haunt me and taunt me for many a mile
G           Am     G             B
She was my gal and she did the while

[Chorus]
    Em    Am     G       Am    Em
To pass away the time in Venezuela
    Em   Am           G       Am      G    Am    Em
(To pass away. . .the time in Venezue-e-e-e-e-e-la)
