G.............................D.............
Got a letter from a long lost cousin of mine
...........G.............................D........
Who owns a little piece of heaven in the Argentine
.......G........................D..............
It's a different planet, it's a different place
............A7..........................................
He calls it out of this world without traveling to space


.....G......................D......
It's not just a lesson in geography
......G.....................D.......
No equation to unravel algebraically
......G...............................D.........
It's written in the wind and on the tropical sea
.....A7.........................................
From south of the equator it keeps callin' to me


.......D.................G..........
South American well you know I would
.......D............G.........
South American if I only could
D...........G..........A7...........

.......D..............G.......
South American I'd go anywhere
.......D................G............
South American somebody take me there
D...........G..........A7........
I wanna be, I wanna be going back


....G.........................D................
You only get to heaven if you chase your dreams
........G........................D.............
Let the paparazzi flash, let the tabloid scream
.....G.................................D..........
I've been around too long to care what anyone says
....A7..........................................
I'm hungry and I'm doing lunch with Cameron Diaz


.......D......................G.........
South American she's got that tango look
.......D.......................G..........
South American she'll read you like a book
D...........G..........A7........
I wanna be, I wanna be going back


...G............D/F#..........Em7.....D.....
It rolls off my tongue like a magical phrase
..G...........D/F#........A7.............
A simple translation this message conveys
..........................................
Gimme that, gimme that South American girl


......D..............G
Wo wo weh wo wo we wo 
......D..............G
Wo wo weh wo wo we wo 
D...........G..........A7...........
I wanna be, I wanna be where it's at

.......D...............G...........
South American I'm not on some trip
.......D..............G..............
South American I just long for a ship
D.................G...................
A sailing boat or anything that floats
A7........
Going back


D............G..............
Woo woo woo  South American
D............G..............
Woo woo woo  South American

"WHERE HAS LOVE BEEN"
(Brian Wilson/Andy Paley/J.D. Souther)


Db.............................Ebm7......
I've been places I can barely talk about
Ab7..........................Db...
Sunny days that died away in tears
Db.............................Ebm7......
Tumbling like a leaf out on the sea of doubt
Ab7..........................Db...
I've seen nights that seem to last for years

Bridge:
............Dbmaj9/Ab.Bbm7.
I know that even if I tried
............Fm7/C........Bbm7..
I couldn't hide my love inside
......Dbm7.........Ab7...Dbm7.....Ab7
It's plain to see
................Dbmaj9/Ab....Bbm7.
That I've been looking everywhere
............Fm7/C....,,......Bbm7
But somehow no one seemed to care


Chorus:
Gb....Ab..Bbm7.Fm7.
Where has love been
Gb....Db/F...Ebm7..Dm7-5..Ebm7
Where has    our  love    been
.......Ebm7/Ab...Ab7
All my life


Db..................................Ebm7......
Now and then it seems as though you get it right
Ab7..............................Db...
Some is never worse than none at all
Db.............................Ebm7.............
Making love can always get you through the night
Ab7..........................................Db..
But true love's there to catch you when you fall

Bridge
Chorus

Db.............................Ebm7......
I'm in love and I know it was meant to be
Gbmaj7..............Ab7............Db..
Close your eyes and dream with me again
......Dbmaj7.......Dbmaj9............
Dream again, dream again, dream again
