F This city is silver in the moon Am And mountains heaped with sugar spoons Dm The click and clatter of my feet Bb C Along the crooked cobbled streets F Like castanets F Down past the window shuttered tight Am The hollow of a haunted night Dm It's raining now out on the beach Bb C The chitter chatter of my teeth F Like castanets F I'm following the coffee trail Am And drink it black and by the bail Dm The pesos turn to paper cups Bb C My fingers tremble at the touch F Like castanets Dm , C , F , G , E , G , F , G , C , Bb , C , F C Across the Mapocho F Santa Lucia C Barrio Bella vista F San Cristobal C Across the Mapocho F La Moneda C C La Casa de Neruda F And on the cable car I climb Am Up to the sacred virgin shrine Dm This city's smothered in the smog Bb C The snippy snap of wild dogs F Like Castanets F Tomorrow is Assumption Day Am I ask just what they celebrate Dm Daniello says he can't explain Bb C But he'll be clappin' anyway F Like Castanets F , Am , Dm , Bb , C , F x2 Ohh...Like Castanets
