Lyrics

There was some thing in the (F7)air that night, the stars were bright, Fer nan do.

They were shin ing there for (F7)you and me, for lib er ty, Fer nan do.

Though we (Bb)nev er thought that we could lose,

there’s no re gret.

If I had to do the (F7)same a gain I would my friend, Fer nan do.

If I had to do the (F7)same a gain I would my friend, Fer nan do.
