Dm C Dm
Last night I dreamt of San Pedro,
Bb/D Dm F C
just like I'd never gone I knew the song.
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.
Gm Eb F A/D Dm
Where a girl loves a boy and a boy loves a girl.

This musical interpretation has been removed due to a legal threat from Moses & Singer LLP,
representing the National Music Publishers' Association (NMPA) and
The Music Publisher's Association of the United States (MPA).
Unfortunately, these threats are fueled by greed and being masked by a "copyright infringement." They claim tab sites are
"hurting the songwriters," but it's a known fact that the publishing companies garner most of the
revenue. Instead, they would prefer you to purchase the
official MADONNA tablature
which is an option we've always given our users. And due to the highly error-prone nature of tabs on the internet, many choose to go this route.
These companies also do not realize that tablature sites help to promote their artists.
For more information on this onslaught, you can read the
NY Times Article.
We hope one of the larger tablature sites will have the money to fight this. Until then, we urge you all to keep tabbing songs and sharing them in any way you can.
