La Isla Bonita
La Isla Bonita
Em D Em
1. Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,
C Em G D
just like I`d never gone, I knew the song.
Em D Em
A young girl with eyes like the desert,
C Em G D
it all seems like yesterday, not far away.
Em D Am G
Tropical the island breeze, all of nature, wild and free,
Bm Am C D Em
this is where I long to be, La Isla Bonita.
D Am G
And when the Samba played, the sun would set so high,
Bm Am C D Em
ring through my ears and sting my eyes, your Spanish lullaby
Em D Em
2. I fell in love with San Pedro,
C Em G D
warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me.
Em D Em
me dijo te amo,
C Em G D
I prayed that the days would last, they went so fast. + Refrain
Am F G Am
3. I want to be where the sun warms the sky,
F G Am
when it`s time for fiesta, you can watch them go by.
F G Am
Beautiful faces, no care in this world,
F G B7 Em
where a girl loves a boy and a boy - loves a girl.
Em D Em
4. Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,
C Em G D
it seems like yesterday, not far away.
