intro LA RE RE MI RE RE MI LA
LA
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
LA/SOL# FA#m
I remember long ago another starry night like this
SIm
In the firelight Fernando
MI
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums and sounds
LA
of bugle calls were coming from afar
LA
They were closer now Fernando
LA/SOL# FA#m
Every hour, every minute seemed to last eternally
SIm
I was so afraid Fernando
MI
We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say the roar of guns and cannons
LA
Almost made me cry
chorus
MI
There was something in the air that night
LA
The stars were bright, Fernando
MI LA
They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando
Cø/G F#7 B7
Though we never thought that we could lose, there's no regret
MI LA
If I had to do the same again, I would, my friend, Fernando
MI RE MI RE RE MI LA
If I had to do the same again, I would, my friend, Fernando
LA RE LA MI LA
LA
Now we're old and grey Fernando
FA#m
And since many years I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
SIm
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
MI
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes how proud you were to fight
LA
For freedom in this land
chorus 2
MI
There was something in the air that night
LA
The stars were bright, Fernando
MI LA
They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando
Cø/G F#7 B7
Though we never thought that we could lose, there's no regret
MI LA
If I had to do the same again, I would, my friend, Fernando
MI
There was something in the air that night
LA
The stars were bright, Fernando
MI LA
They were shining there for you and me, for liberty, Fernando
Cø/G F#7 B7
Though we never thought that we could lose, there's no regret
MI LA
If I had to do the same again, I would, my friend, Fernando
MI LA
As if I had to do the same again, I would, my friend, Fernando
fade out:
MI LA
If I had to do the same again, I would, my friend, Fernando
