La Isla Bonita   (midi)

 

    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

   Te    diso     te     amo,  

C    Em                    G                               D

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

 

   Am           F                   G                    Am

+  I want to be where the sun warms the sky,

                                   F                     G                   Am

    when it`s time for siesta, 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

3. Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,

C      Em            G                    D

    it seems like yesterday, not far away.

 

+  CHORUS (2x) ....

 

    (Madonna)
