When you hear the drums from

Verse 1
G 
round the hall
C 
I remember long ago,
G 
Em 
when on a starry night like this
Am 
In the violet light,
You were humming to yourself
and softly strumming your guitar
D 
I could hear the distant drums
and sounds of bugle quarter
G 
coming from afar
Come closer now, Fernando
Every hour, every minute
Em 
seemed to last eternally
Am 
I was so afraid, Fernando
We were young and full of life,
G 
but none of us prepared to die
D 
I'm not ashamed to say the roar of guns
G 
and cannons almost made me cry
D 
There was something in the air that night,
G 
the stars were bright, Fernando
Em 
D 
They were shining there for you and me,
G 
for liberty, Fernando
Fdim 
Though we never  thought
E 
that we could lose,
A 
there's no regrets
D 
If I had to do the same again,
G 
I would, my friend, Fernando
D 
If I had to do the same again,
C 
G 
D 
G 
I would, my friend, Fernando
Now we're old and brave, Fernando
Since many years
Em 
I haven't seen a rifle in your hand
Am 
Can you hear the drums,
Do you still recall
the fateful night
D 
we crossed the Rio Grande?
I can see it in your eyes,
how proud you were
G 
to fight for freedom in this land
D 
There was something in the air that night,
G 
the stars were bright, Fernando
Em 
D 
They were shining there for you and me,
G 
for liberty, Fernando
Fdim 
Though we never  thought
E 
that we could lose,
A 
there's no regrets
D 
If I had to do the same again,
G 
I would, my friend, Fernando

I would my friend Fernando
D 
Yes, if I had to do the same again
G 
I would my friend Fernando
D 
If I had to do the same again
G 
I would my friend Fernando
D 
If I had to do the same again,
C 
I would, my friend, for Nantuck.
