Capo 3rd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
Intro (short)
~Stanza 1~
In the sunlight of your smile,
In the summer of our lives,
In the magic of love,
Storms a-bove scattered away,
~Stanza 2~
Lovers dreaming in the night,
Reaching for paradise,
But as the dark shadows fade,
Love sleeps away.
~Same as stanza 1~
On an empty stretch of beach,
In the pattern of the waves,
Drawing pictures with my hand,
In the sand I see your face,
~Same as stanza 2~
Skipping pebbles on the sea,
Wishing for paradise,
Sand castles crumble bellow,
The restless tide ebb and flow,
~Chorus~ (Los Lobos version)
Listening to a shell, [B7#9]
Hoping for your voice, [B7#9]
Beautiful Mari - a of my soul
of my soul
~Chorus~ (Mambo All-Stars version)
Listening to a shell,
Hoping for your voice,
Beautiful Mari - a of my soul
of my soul
Flute/Trumpet Solo ~Same as stanza 1~
Bridge ~Same as intro~
~Same as stanza 1~
Do we always be apart,
Locked forever in a dream,
If I ever love again,
Even then nothing will change,
~Same as stanza 2~
And the taste of you remains,
Clinging to paradise,
But as the distance from you grows,
All that my heart ever knows,
Chorus ~same~
/ repeated to the end
