Intro: ( G5 ) D5 C5 G5 {pause}
D5 C5 G5
At the moment the music began, and you heard the guitar player starting sing
D5 C5 G5
You were filled with the beauty that ran, through what you were imagining
C5 E5 D5
Dreaming of scenes from those songs of love, I was the endless sky
C5 G5
And you were my Mexican dove.
D5 C5 G5
Now the music that played in your ears, grows a little bit fainter each day
D5 C5 G5
And you find yourself looking through tears, at the love you feel slipping away
C5 E5
Though it's not the kind, of love you might hope to find
D5 C5 G5
If tears could release the heart, from the shadows preferred by the mind
Interlude:
( G5 ) D5 C5 G5 x 2
D5 C5 G5
Like a wind that comes up in the night, caressing your face while you sleep
D5 C5 G5
Love will fill your eyes with the sight, of a world you can't hope to keep
C5 E5 D5
Dreaming on after that moment's gone, the light in your lover's eyes
C5 G5 C5
Disappears in the light of the dawn, but the morning brings, strength to your
E5 B5 E5
restless wings, and some other lover sings to the sun's bright corona,
{pause} D5 C5 G5 ( G5 ) D5 C5 G5
I know all about these things, Linda Paloma.
D5 G5 G5 E5 D5 G5
Fly away...Linda Paloma.
