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
