C#m            B            C#m
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
A    C#m       E              B
Just like I'd never gone, I knew the song
C#m                B             C#m
A young girl with eyes like the desert
A  C#m              E             B
It all seems like yesterday, not far away

Chorus:
C#m          B
Tropical the island breeze
F#m            E
All of nature wild and free
B               F#m
This is where I long to be
F#m       C#m
La isla bonita
C#m            B
And when the samba played
F#m             E
 The sun would set so high
        B                 F#m
Ring through my ears and sting my eyes
      G#m         C#m
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

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

Last night I dreamt of San Pedro
It all seems like yesterday, not far away
