Fernando

A
Can you hear the drums Fernando?

I remember long ago
                               F#mi
Another starry night like this 
                          Hmi
In the firelight Fernando 

You were humming to yourself
                                 E
And softly strumming your guitar 

I could hear the distant drums

And sounds of bugle calls
                      A
Were coming from afar 

They were closer now Fernando

Every hour, every minute
                         F#mi
Seemed to last eternally 
                         Hmi
I was so afraid Fernando 
                              E
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
                   A
Almost made me cry 
                                          E
There was something in the air that night 
                                A
The stars were bright, Fernando 
                            E
They were shining there for you and me
                      A
For liberty, Fernando 
                                            F#
Though we never thought that we could loose 
                  H7
There's no regret 
                              E
If I had to do the same again 
                             A
I would, my friend, Fernando 
                              E
If I had to do the same again 
                             A
I would, my friend, Fernando 



Now we're old and grey Fernando
Since many years
I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
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
For freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could loose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could loose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
