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.
