F5
This city is silver in the moon
                                  A5
And mountains heaped with sugar spoons
                             D5
The click and clatter of my feet
             Bb5               C5
Along the crooked cobbled streets
          F5
Like castanets

                              F5
Down past the window shuttered tight
                          A5
The hollow of a haunted night
                              D5
It's raining now out on the beach
              Bb5             C5
The chitter chatter of my teeth
          F5
Like castanets


                           F5
I'm following the coffee trail
                               A5
And drink it black and by the bail
                         D5
The pesos turn to paper cups
              Bb5            C5
My fingers tremble at the touch
           F5
Like castanets

D5 , C5 , F5 , G5 , E5 , G5 , F5 , G5 , C5 , Bb5 , C5 , F5

              C5
Across the Mapocho
         F5
Santa Lucia
               C5
Barrio Bella vista
          F5
San Cristobal
              C5
Across the Mapocho
      F5
La Moneda
             C5          C5
La Casa de Neruda

                         F5
And on the cable car I climb
                          A5
Up to the sacred virgin shrine
                              D5
This city's smothered in the smog
             Bb5           C5
The snippy snap of wild dogs
          F5
Like Castanets

                        F5
Tomorrow is Assumption Day
                          A5
I ask just what they celebrate
                           D5
Daniello says he can't explain
                 Bb5       C5
But he'll be clappin' anyway
           F5
Like Castanets

F5 , A5 , D5 , Bb5 , C5 , F5 x2

Ohh...Like Castanets
