B7              Am     D
In the sunlight of your smile,

                      Em       C
In the summer of our lives,

                 Am
In the magic of love,

Am     B  C              B7    B7
Storms a-bove scattered away,
[Verse 2]
B7              Am    D
Lovers dreaming in the night,

        G         C
Reaching for paradise,

            Am           Em
But as the dark shadows fade,

              C   B7
Love sleeps away.
[Verse 3]
B7              Am     D
On an empty stretch of beach,

                      Em       C
In the pattern of the waves,

                 Am
Drawing pictures with my hand,

Am     B  C              B7    B7
In the sand I see your face,
[Verse 4]
B7              Am    D
Skipping pebbles on the sea,

     G         C
Wishing for paradise,

            Am           Em
Sand castles crumble bellow,

              C   B7
The restless tide ebb and flow,
[Chorus]
                  Em  Am9  B7#9
Listening to a shell,

                  Em  Am9  B7#9
Hoping for your voice,

             Em  Am/C  Am  B7 Em
Beautiful Mari - a     of  my soul

Em  Am B7    Em
       of my soul
[Chorus] (Mambo All-Stars version)
                  Em  B7b13
Listening to a shell,

[Flute/Trumpet Solo] Am D Em C Am Am Em B C B7 [Bridge] Em7 Am Am/C B7 Am B7 [Verse 5]
B7              Am     D
Do we always be apart,

             Em       C
Locked forever in a dream,

                 Am
If  I ever love again,

Am     B  C              B7    B7
Even then nothing will change,
[Verse 6]
B7              Am     D
And the taste of you remains,

             Em       C
Clinging to paradise,

                 Am
But as the distance from you grows,

Am     B  C              B7    B7
All that my heart ever knows,
[Chorus] (Los Lobos version)
                  Em  Am9  B7#9
Listening to a shell,

Hoping for your voice,
