Verse 1:
                    
Man, it's a hot one
                                      
Like seven inches from the midday sun

Well, I hear your whisper
           /   Bm7b5  
And the words melt everyone
                      
But you say so   cool
               
My Mune-quita
                            
My spanish Harlem Mona Lisa
                                 /  Bm7b5
Well, you're my reason for  reason,
                  
The step in my groove


Chorus:
                               
And if you said  this life   ain't  good enough,
                     
I would give  my world  to lift you up
                                         / Bm7b5
I could change  my life  to better suit your mood
                  
Because you're so  smooth
                               
Well, and it's just like the ocean  under the moon
                                     
Well, it's the same as the emotion that I get from you
                             
You got the kind of lovin' that can be so smooth, yeah
 N..                   
Gimme your heart, make it real
N..
Or else forget about it

Verse 2:
                               
Well, I'll tell you one thing,
                                          
If you would leave it'd be a cryin' shame
                          
In every breath and every word
  /  Bm7b5                   
I hear    your name callin' me   out,   yeah
                           
Well, out from the barrio
                                 
You hear my rhythm on your radio
                                
And you feel the turning of the world,
  /   Bm7b5     
So   soft and slow,
                 
Turnin' you  round  and round

[Chorus]
