La Isla Bonita

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