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              Abm
Tropical the island breeze
Gbm              E
All of nature wild and free
B                Gbm
This is where I long to be
Abm        Dbm
La isla bonita
Dbm             Abm
And when the samba played
Gbm             E
The sun would set so high
B                         Gbm
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
        Abm      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              Abm
Tropical the island breeze
Gbm              E
All of nature wild and free
B                Gbm
This is where I long to be
Abm        Dbm
La isla bonita
Dbm             Abm
And when the samba played
Gbm             E
The sun would set so high
B                         Gbm
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
        Abm      Dbm
Your Spanish lullaby

Gbm        Dbm            E            B
I want to be where the sun warms the sky
           Gbm         Dbm            E            B
When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by
Gbm          Dbm        E            B
Beautiful faces, no cares in this world
         Gbm           Dbm         E    Ab      Dbm
Where a girl loves a boy, and a boy loves a girl
