Antonio loves the desert

Antonio prays for rain
Dm            Am
Antonio knows that pleasure
      Bm              E   E7
Is the child of pain

Am               Dm
And lost in La Califusa
Am                     A7
When most of my hope was gone
Dm               Am
Antonio's samba led me
   Bm           E E7
To the Amazon

Chorus:
             Am
We sing the song
          A       Dm
Forgotten for so long

And let the music flow
     E7              Am      Bm
Like light into the rainbow
             Am
We know the dance, we have
          A         Dm
We still have the chance
               Bm
To break these chains and flow
    E7             Am      Bm   E7
Like light into the rainbow
