A
Can you hear the drums Fernando?
F#m
I remember long ago another
starry night like this
Bm
In the firelight Fernando
E
You were humming to yourself and
softly strumming your guitar
I could hear the distant drums
and sounds
A
of bugle calls were coming from
afar
Chorus :
E
There was something in the air
that night
A
The stars were bright, Fernando
E A
They were shining there for you
and me, for liberty, Fernando
F#
B7
Though we never thought that we
could lose, there's no regret
E A
If I had to do the same again, I
would, my friend, Fernando
E A
If I had to do the same again, I
would, my friend, Fernando
Other verses :
They were closer now Fernando
Every hour, every minute seemed
to last eternally
I was so afraid Fernando
We were young and full of life
and none of us prepared to die
And I'm not ashamed to say the
roar of guns and cannons
Almost made me cry
Now we're old and grey Fernando
And 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 freeedom in this land
