La Isla Bonita

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
