C                      C7          F
When the swallows come back to Capistrano
           C                Am7                D7    G7
that's the day you promised you'd come back to me
         C           C7           F
when you wispered farwell in Capistrano
             C                G7              C
that was the day the swallows flew out to the sea,


[Chorus]
C7      F                  C
all the mission bells will ring
    F                 C
the chapel choir will sing
E7                   Am
the happiness you'll bring
     D7              G7
will live in my memory,


[Verse 2]
C                      C7           F
When the swallows come back to Capistrano
           C               G7                  C
that's the day I pray that you'll come back to me.

when the swallows come back to Capistrano
           C              G7                  C
that's the day I pray that you'll come back to me.

that's the day I pray that you'll come back to me
