La isla bonita

                

DO#-              SI                  DO#-
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
LA  DO#-     MI
just like I'd never gone,
    SI
I knew the song.
    DO#-                 SI                   DO#-
A young girl with eyes like the desert
LA DO#-              MI
it all seems like yesterday,
       SI   SOL#
not far away.

DO#-              SOL#- SOL#-7
Tropical the island breeze
FA#-                         MI
all of nature, wild and free
SI                    FA#-
this is where I long to be
                   DO#-
la isla bonita.
                         SOL#- SOL#-7
And when the samba played
FA#-                    MI
the sun would set so high
         SI
ring through my ears
                         FA#-
and sting my eyes.
                           SI     DO#-
Your Spanish lullaby.

I fell in love with San Pedro
warm wind carried on the sea,
he called to me: te diso te amo
I prayed that the days would last
they went so fast.

Tropical...

FA#-        RE
I want to be where
       MI                      SI4
the sun warms the sky
               FA#-        RE
when it's time for siesta
               MI
you can watch them go by
FA#-       RE             MI                 SI4
beautiful faces, no cares in this world
              FA#-             RE
where a girl loves a boy
           MI
and a boy
SOL#   DO#-
loves a girl.
