(G)Oh, Ha va na, I’ve been search ing for you ev ’ry where.

(G)Though I’ll nev er be there, I (G)know what I would see there.

(G)I can al ways find my Cu ban skies

in Ro sa lin da’s eyes.

When she smiles, she gives ev ’ry thing to me.

When she’s all a lone she cries.

I’d do (Gm)an y thing to (F)take a way her tears,
