D F#m Hm F#m
I´ve been all around this great big world To Paris and to Rome
D F#m Hm F#m
And I´ve never found a place that I Could really call my own
Hm F#m
But there´s one place where I know The sun is shining endlessly
A D
And it´s calling me across the sea So I must get back to San Bernadino
D F#m Hm F#m
I remember when I was sixteen My daddy said to me
D F#m Hm F#m
«You could travel round this universe Until eternity,
Hm F#m
«But you´ll never find that peace of mind That you´ve been dreamin´ of,
A A D
«Not until you finally decide To come on home to San Bernadino.»
Chorus
A D
Oh, I´m longin´ for San Bernadino
Hm F#m D
Oh, I´m longin´ for San Bernadino
3rd verse
I´ve been all along the water
Right up to the Rio Grande
And I´ve never found that paradise
They call the promised land
I was young and foolishly
I thought the world was at my feet
But I know different now and so*
I´m homeward bound for San Bernadino
4th verse
Well I´m older and I´m wiser
And I´ve seen the light of day
And I think it´s time to realise
My dreams have gone astray
But I tried so hard to reach that star
That was so far away
So now I gotta find that road
That´s leading home to San Bernadino
Chorus
