Beach Boys - San Miguel

san miguel by the beach boys
( dennis wilson/Gregg jakobson )

sounds best to me when using barre chords for everything except the D chord .

A#
started off the day with a thought
F
that took me far away
A#
i think i found a place
F
where i know i can be forever

D
it’s down in san miguel
G
could be in mexico
C
where you don’t need no dough
F – F# – G
i know i’m gonna go

( lookin’ for the ladies of love )

A#
i go where i’m going

goin’ straight ahead
F
down in to san miguel
A#
over the top

we cross the border now
F
headin’ in to san miguel

D
that’s where i’m gonna go
G
hope that you’ll be comin’ too
C
you can kick off your shoes
F – F# – G
come on it’s time to go

lookin’ for the ladies of love

( play verse chords over the ow ow’s and yi yi yi’s )

ow ow

yiyiyiyiyiyi

D
it’s down in san miguel
G
could be in mexico
C
where you don’t need no dough
F – F# – G
i know i’m gonna go

lookin’ for the ladies of love

A# ( through fade – out )
