[A]
Can you hear the drums, Fernando?
I remember long ago another star in [F#m] our paths
In the [Bm] firelight, Fernando
You were humming to yourself and softly strumming [E] your guitar
I could hear the distant drums and sounds of bugle calls
were coming [A] from afar
They were close now, Fernando
Every hour, every minute seemed to last [F#m]
eternally
I was so [Bm] afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life and none was [E] compared with thine
And I'm not ashamed to say the roar of guns and cannons almost [A] made me cry
There was something [E] in the air that night
The stars were bright, [A] Fernando
They were shining [E] there for you and me
For liberty, [A] Fernando
[C#] Though we never thought that we [F#] could lose
There's no [B] regret
If I had to [E] do the same again
I would, my friend, [A] Fernando
If I had to [E] do the same again
I would, my friend, [D] Fernando
Now [E] [A]
[D] [A] [E]
[A] [E] [A]
we're old and brave, Fernando
Since many years I haven't seen a rifle [F#m] in your hand
[D] Can you hear the [Bm] drums, Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night we crossed [E] the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes how proud you were to fight for freedom [A] in this land
There was something [E] in the air that night
The stars were bright, [A] Fernando
They were shining [E] there for you and me
For liberty, [A] Fernando
Though we never thought that we [F#] could lose
There's [B] no regret
If I had [E] to do the same again
I would, my friend, [A] Fernando
There was [E] something in the air that night
The stars were bright, [A] Fernando
They were shining [E] there for you and me
For liberty, [A] Fernando
Though we never thought that we [F#] could lose
There's [B] no regret
If I had to [E] do the same again
I would, my friend, [A] Fernando
Yes, if I had to [E] do the same again
I would, my friend, [A] Fernando
If I had to do [E] the same again
