D  G  A  D  G  A

Verse 1:

D                        G       A
Has anybody here seen Roberto Duran?
D                      G         A
I met him once yeah I shook his hand
   Em                    G           A
I looked in his eyes and now I understand
    Em                        A                  D  G  A  D
The love and the anger in the eyes of Roberto Duran


Verse 2:

D                           G       A
Has anybody here seen that Mexican girl?
     D                              G           A
She lives up on Third street in her own little world
  Em                           G                   A
A saint in the window with the rosary beads in her hand
          Em                       A                   D  G  A  D
With the smile of an angel and the eyes of  Roberto Duran


Chorus:

Bm                  A
Panama City, it's three in the morning
         G                A         Bm
They're talkin' 'bout the hands of stone
G                       D
New York City, Lord the sun's coming up
   C                              A
My lady's throwing everything she owns


Verse 3:

D                         G       A
Has anybody here seen the woman I love
       D                         G              A
She'll fight down and dirty when push comes to shove
       Em                     G                       A
She'll win every round if the fight goes according to plan
         Em                        A                  D  G  A  D
With the smile of an angel and the eyes of Roberto Duran
