Capo 2nd Fret
[Intro]
C Am G
C Am E
Am Dm E
Am Dm E
[Verse]
Am
Last night I dreamt you were a glass of rioja
Dm
Wine we drank on the first night we met
If you could cross my tongue and trace through my veins
E Am
You could have gone with me on the morning I left
Am
Oh la meva maca senorita
Dm
You danced the sardana bare feet on the floor
Am
And when you get tired lay your head on my chest
E Am
Please hear my song don’t you cry no more
[Chorus]
G C
Oh my heart is a bird that sings while you’re gone
G
La-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da
The loneliest song that you’ve ever heard
C
La-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da
F
Goodbye Barcelona so glad I’ve been shown ya
C C7
I’m going I’m leaving the land of the sun
F
For the far north where I don’t want to go
G
Where the rain it stops for no one
C Am G C Am E
But I’m bringing a bottle of rum
[Verse]
Am
I was just thinking about my return
Dm
Temptation like oranges lies ripe on the vine
Am
Sagrada Familia grows taller each year
E Am
Like my love for you that grows stronger with time
[Chorus]
G C
Oh my heart is a bird that sings while you’re gone
G
La-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da
The loneliest song that you’ve ever heard
C
La-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da
F
Goodbye Barcelona so glad I’ve been shown ya
C C7
I’m going I’m leaving the land of the sun
F
For the far north where I don’t want to go
G
Where the rain it stops for no one
Am E Am E
But I’m bringing a bottle of rum
[Solo]
Am Dm
Am E
Am G
[Chorus]
G C
Oh my heart is a bird that sings while you’re gone
G
La-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da
The loneliest song that you’ve ever heard
C
La-da-da-da-da da-da-da-da-da
F
Goodbye Barcelona so glad I’ve been shown ya
C C7
I’m going I’m leaving the land of the sun
F
For the far north where I don’t want to go
G
Where the rain it stops for no one
C Am G
But I’m bringing a bottle of rum
[Outro]
C Am G (Repeat to Fade)
