A Can you hear the drums Fernando?
I remember long ago
Another starry night like this F#mi
In the firelight Fernando Hmi
You were humming to yourself
And softly strumming your guitar E
I could hear the distant drums
And sounds of bugle calls
Were coming from afar A
They were closer now Fernando
Every hour, every minute
Seemed to last eternally F#mi
I was so afraid Fernando Hmi
We were young and full of life E
And none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say
The roar of guns and cannons
Almost made me cry A
There was something in the air that night E
The stars were bright, Fernando A
They were shining there for E you and me
For liberty, Fernando A
Though we never thought that we could loose F#
There's no regret H7
If I had to do the same again E
I would, my friend, Fernando A
If I had to do the same again E
I would, my friend, Fernando A
Now we're old and grey Fernando
Since many years
I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
Do you still recall the fateful night
We crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes
How proud you were to fight
For freedom in this land
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could loose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
There was something in the air that night
The stars were bright, Fernando
They were shining there for you and me
For liberty, Fernando
Though we never thought that we could loose
There's no regret
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
Yes if I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
If I had to do the same again
I would, my friend, Fernando
ABBA
