Intro
| [A]   | [A]   | [A]   | [A]   | [A]   | [A]   |
| [D]   | [D]   | [D]   | [D]

Ra- | [D] mona, come | closer | [D] | [D]
shut | [D] softly your | watery | [A] eyes   | [A] | [A] | [A]
The | [A] pangs of your | sadness, will | pass as your | senses will | [D] rise   | [D] | [D7] | [D7]
The | [G] flowers of the | city, though | breathlike, get | deathlike at | [A] times   | [A] | [A] | [A]
And there's | [A] no use in | tryin', to | deal with the | dyin'
Though I | [A] cannot ex- | [A7] plain that in | [D] lines. | [D] | [D] | [D]

Your | [D] cracked country | lips, I | still wish to | kiss
As to | [D] be by the | touch of you | [A] skin | [A] | [A] | [A]
Your | [A] magnetic | movements, still | capture the | minutes I'm | [D] in | [D] | [D] | [D]
But it | [G] grieves my | heart, love, to | see you tryin' to be a | part of
A | [G] world that | just don't e- | [A] xist | [A] | [A] | [A]
It's | [A] all just a | dream babe, a | vacuum, a | scheme babe
That | [A] sucks you into | [A7] feelin' like | [D] this. | [D] | [D] | [D]

Ra- | [D] mona tus | ojos me | dicen | que vas a llo- | [A] rar | [A] | [A] | [A]
Tus | [A] suenos se | [A] borran, y | [A] nada se | [A] va reali- | [D] zer | [D] | [D] | [D]
Ra- | [G] mona tus | ojos se | secan, | y pierden | [A] su luz   | [A] | [A] | [A]
Tu- | [A] viste un ca- | [A] rino, de un | [A] hombre y un | [A] nino
Y | [A] ahora sola- | [A7] mente eres | [D] tu | [D] | [D]   | [D]

Instrumental Solos
| [D]   | [D]   | [D]   | [D]
| [A]   | [A]   | [A]   | [A]
| [A]   | [A]   | [A]   | [A]
| [D]   | [D]   | [D]   | [D]

I'd for- | [D] ever talk | [D] to you | but soon my | words...
They would | [D] turn into a | meaningless | [A] ring   | [A] | [A] | [A]
For | [A] deep in my | [A] heart, I | know there is no | help I can | [D] bring   | [D] | [D7] | [D7]
| [G] Everything | passes, | Everything | changes
Just | [G] do what you | think you should | [A] do | [A] | [A] | [A]
And | [A] someday, | maybe, | Who knows, | baby
I'll | [A] come and be | [A7] cryin' to | [D] you. | [D] | [D7] | [D7]

Sa- | [A] bes que te | quiero, que | por ti me | muero
Y | [A] solamen- | [A] te eres | [D] tu | [D] | [D] | [D]
| [A]   | [A]   | [A7]   | [A7]
| [D]   | [D]   | [D] [A7↓] | [D↓]
