(B7) E A E A E B7
Where the deep blue pearly waters wash upon white silver sands
E B7 E
There on the brink of love I kissed her and obeyed our hearts command.
B7 A F#m7 B7
So beneath God's blue hea - ven,
B9 E E6 E7
There's a place that I must go,
A F#m7 B7
See the sun set in the eve - ning
B9 E E6 F#m7 B7
With the on - ly love I know.
(B7) E A E A E B7
Where the deep blue pearly waters wash upon white silver sands
E B7 E
There on the brink of love I kissed her and obeyed our hearts command.)
(Instrumental interlude - 1 verse)
E7 A F#m7 B7
We watched the sun set in the eve - ning,
B9 E E6 E7
See the moon yellow and pale,
A F#m7 B7
Watch the gauchos ride their pin - tos
B9 E E6 F#m7 B7
All across the pampas trail.
(B7) E A E A E B7
Where the deep blue pearly waters wash upon white silver sands
E A E B7 E
There on the brink of love I kissed her and obeyed our hearts command.
