[Bb/D xx0331]

[Csus2 x3003x]

Dm C Dm

Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,

Bb/D Dm F C

just like I'd never gone I knew the song.

Dm C Dm

A young girl with eyes like the desert.

Bb/D Dm F C A/C#

It all seems like yesterday, not far away.

CHORUS:

Dm Am Am7 Gm F

Tropical the island breeze, all of nature wild and free.

C Gm C Dm

This is where I long to be, La isla bonita.

(Dm) Am Am7 Gm F

And when the samba played, the sun would set so high,

C Gm C Dm

ring through my ears and sting my eyes. Your Spanish lullaby.

Dm C Dm

Bb/D Dm F C

warm wind carried on the sea. He called to me:

Dm C Dm

"Te diso te amo."

Bb/D Dm F C A/C#

I prayed that the days would last, they went so fast.

CHORUS

Gm Eb F Csus2

I want to be where the sun warms the sky.

Gm Eb F

When it's time for siesta you can watch them go by.

Gm Eb F Csus2

Beautiful faces, no cares in this world.

Gm Eb F A/D Dm

Where a girl loves a boy and a boy loves a girl.
