Intro: (G) D7 C G [pause]



[tab]        D7                                            C                  G

At the moment the music began, and you heard the guitar player starting sing[/tab]



[tab]        D7                                              C             G

You were filled with the beauty that ran, through what you were imagining[/tab]



[tab] C                             Em                               D7

Dreaming of scenes from those songs of love, I was the endless sky[/tab]



[tab]                 C      G

And you were my Mexican dove.[/tab]





[tab]       D7                                                   C            G

Now the music that played in your ears, grows a little bit fainter each day[/tab]



[tab]       D7                                                         C         G

And you find yourself looking through tears, at the love you feel slipping away[/tab]



[tab]  C                                                Em

Though it's not the kind, of love you might hope to find[/tab]



[tab]                           D7                       C                G

If tears could release the heart, from the shadows preferred by the mind[/tab]



Interlude: (G) D7 C G x 2





[tab]       D7                                               C               G

Like a wind that comes up in the night, caressing your face while you sleep[/tab]



[tab]          D7                                                   C        G

Love will fill your eyes with the sight, of a world you can't hope to keep[/tab]



[tab] C                      Em                                       D7

Dreaming on after that moment's gone, the light in your lover's eyes[/tab]



[tab]                   C            G                     C

Disappears in the light of the dawn, but the morning brings, strength to your[/tab]



[tab]          Em                          Bm                        Em

restless wings, and some other lover sings to the sun's bright corona,[/tab]



[tab] [pause]        D7              C     G      (G) D7 C G

I know all about these things, Linda Paloma.[/tab]



[tab]      D7...       G     G Em D7 G

Fly away...Linda Paloma.[/tab]
