Verse 1:
C                                          Dm
They say Spain is pretty though I've never been
G                                        E7                Am
And Daniel says it's the best place that he's e-e-e-ever-r seen
G      F         G                     Am
Oh and he should know, he's been there enough
      F              G    F           C
Lord, I miss Daniel, oh I miss him so much, oh

Your eyes have died but you see more than I
