[Verse 1]
[G][ music begins

[Interlude 1]
[G][C][G]

[Verse 2]
[G]Can you hear the [C]drums,[G]
I remember long ago,
another star in my [Em]life
In [C]the fire[Em]light,[Am]
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
They were closer now, Fernando
Every hour, every minute
seemed to last etern[Em]ally
I was [C]so [Am]afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life,
none of us prepared to [D]die
And I'm not ashamed to say
the roar of guns and cannons
almost [G]made you cry
There was something in the [D]air at night,
the stars were bright, Fernan[G]do
There was shining [C]there for [D]you and me,
for liberty, Fernan[G]do
Though I never thought that
we could [E]lose,
there's no regret
[A]If I had to do the sam[D]e again,
I would, my friend, Fernan[G]do
If I had to do the [D]same thing
I would, my friend, [C]Fernan[G]do[D][C][G]
Now we're old and grey, Fernando
Since many years
I haven't seen a rifle in your [Em]hand
Do you [C]hear the [Em]drums,[Am]
Do you still recall the fights of mine
we crossed the Rio [D]Grande?
I just see it in your eyes
how proud you were
to fight for freedom in [G]this land
There was something in the [D]air that night
The stars were bright, Fernan[G]do
They were shining, they were [D]you and me
For liberty, Fernan[G]do
No, I never thought that we
could [E]lose
There's no [A]regret
If I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, can I [G]go?
If I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, can I [G]go?
Yes, if I had to do the [D]same again
I would, my friend, can [C]I g[D]o?[G]
Thank you.
