[Verse 1]
 G                                             D
Sitting in the sun waiting for a senorita to show
                 D7            G            G7
guitars playing melodies from Spain and Mexico
 C                                             Bm                 C
Soft wind blowing the smell of sweet roses to       each and everyone
 G                D              G
happy to be on an island in the sun

[Verse 2]
 G                                                       D
Mothers with their children waiting in the cool of the shade
                    D7                             G            G7
and thirsty people coming from the fields to drink tea and lemonade
 C                                    Bm                 C
Old man yawning as day is coming his     working day is done
      G                 D             G
he's happy to be on an island in the sun

[Bridge ]
 G                                   Am
All the stars come out and shine so bright
          D                    D7          G     G7
its so romantic to be in that moonlit paradise
 C                                 Bm         C
Love is going to shine a welcoming light when I
 G                         D          G
look into the eyes of the senorita tonight
