LA ISLA BONITA

e D e
1. Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,
C e G D
just like I`d never gone, I knew the song.
e D e
A young girl with eyes like the desert,
C e G D
it all seems like yesterday, not far away.
e D a G
Tropical the island breeze, all of nature, wild and free,
h a C D e
this is where I long to be, La Isla Bonita.
D a G
And when the Samba played, the sun would set so high,
h a C D e
ring through my ears and sting my eyes, your Spanish lullaby
e D e
2. I fell in love with San Pedro,
C e G D
warm wind carried on the sea, he called to me.
e D e
Te diso te amo,
C e G D
I prayed that the days would last, they went so fast. + Refrain
a F G a
3. I want to be where the sun warms the sky,
F G a
when it`s time for siesta, you can watch them go by.
F G a
Beautiful faces, no care in this world,
F G H7 e
where a girl loves a boy and a boy - loves a girl.
e D e
4. Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,
