Capo 4th fret
[Intro]
Am G
Como puede ser verdad
[Verse]
Am G Am
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
F Am C G
Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song
Am G Am
A young girl with eyes like the desert
F Am C G
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
[Chorus]
Am G
Tropical the island breeze
Dm C
All of nature wild and free
G Dm
This is where I long to be
Em Am
La isla bonita
Am G
And when the samba played
Dm C
The sun would set so high
G Dm
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Em Am
Your Spanish lullaby
[Verse]
Am G Am
I fell in love with San Pedro
F Am C G
Warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me
Am G Am
Te dijo te amo
F Am C G
I prayed that the days would last, they went so fast
[Chorus]
Am G
Tropical the island breeze
Dm C
All of nature wild and free
G Dm
This is where I long to be
Em Am
La isla bonita
Am G
And when the samba played
Dm C
The sun would set so high
G Dm
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Em Am
Your Spanish lullaby
[Bridge]
Dm Bb C Dm
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
Dm Am C
When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by
Dm Bb C Dm
Beautiful faces, no cares in this world
Dm Bb C E Am
Where a girl loves a boy, and a boy loves a girl
[Chorus]
Am G
Tropical the island breeze
Dm C
All of nature wild and free
G Dm
This is where I long to be
Em Am
La isla bonita
Am G
And when the samba played
Dm C
The sun would set so high
G Dm
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
Em Am
Your Spanish lullaby
