Eb Gm Cm Gm
I´ve been all around this great big world to Paris and to Rome,
Eb Gm Ab Bb
and I´ve never found a place that I could really call my own.

But there´s one place where I know the sun is shining endlessly,
Bb Bb7 Bb
and it´s calling me across the sea, so I must get back to
Bb7 Eb Bb Eb
San Bernardino.

San Bernardino.

Oh, I´m longing for San Bernardino,

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.

but I´m no different now, and so I´m homeward bound for

so, now I got to find that road that´s leading home to
Bb7 Eb Bb Eb
San Bernardino.
