[Intro 1]
[G][G][G][G][G]

[G][G]

[Verse 1]
Can you hear the drums Fer[G]nando
I remember long ago
Another starry night like [Em]this
In the firelight Fer[Am]nando
You were humming to yourself
And softly strumming your gui[D]tar
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls
were coming from [G]afar

[Verse 2]
They were closer now Fer[G]nando
Every hour every minute
seemed to last eternal[Em]ly
I was so afraid Fer[Am]nando
We were young and full of life
and none of us prepared to [D]die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons
Almost [G]made me cry

[Chorus 1]
There was something in the [D]air that night
The stars were bright, Fer[G]nando
They were shining there for [D]you and me
For liberty, Fer[G]nando
Though we never thought that we could [E]lose
There's no re[A]gret
If I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, Fer[G]nando
If I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend,

[Interlude 1]
Fer[C]nando[G][D][G]

[Verse 3]
Now we're old and grey Fernando
Since many years
I haven't seen a rifle in [Em]your hand
Can you hear the drums [Am]Fernando
Do you still recall the frightful night
we crossed the Rio [D]Grande
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight
for freedom in this [G]land

[Chorus 2]
There was something in the [D]air that night
The stars were bright, Fer[G]nando
They were shining there for [D]you and me
For liberty, Fer[G]nando
Though we never thought that we could [E]lose
There's no re[A]gret
If I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, Fer[G]nando

[Chorus 3]
There was something in the [D]air that night
The stars were bright, Fer[G]nando
They were shining there for [D]you and me
For liberty, Fer[G]nando
Though we never thought that we could [E]lose
There's no re[A]gret
If I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, Fer[G]nando
Yes, if I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, Fer[G]nando
[Fade out]
