Fernando:Abba

#1.

Sol
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Mi-
I remember long ago another starry night like this,
Lá-
In the firelight Fernando,

You were humming to yourself and softly strumming your

Ré
guitar.

I could hear the distant drums,

Sol
and sounds of bugle calls were coming from afar.

#2.
Sol
They were closer now Fernando,
Mi-
Every hour every minute seemed to last eternally.
Lá-
I was so afraid Fernando.

We were young and full of life and none of us prepared to

Ré
die.

And I'm not ashamed to say,

Sol
The roar of guns and cannons almost made me cry.

CHORUS:
Ré
There was something in the air that night,
Sol
The stars were bright, Fernando.
Ré
They were shining there for you and me,
Sol
For liberty, Fernando.
Mi
Though I never thought that we could lose,
Lá
There's no regret.
Ré
If I had to do the same again,
Sol
I would, my friend, Fernando.
