Only a dream in Rio
Composição de (James Taylor)
( D / E/G# / A / Bm7 / C#m )  
More than a distant land, Over a shining sea  
More than the steaming green, More than the shining eyes  
  
E/G# / A / F#m / Bm7 / E/G# / A / F#m  
Well they tell me  It?s only a dream in Rio  
                  Bm7         E/G#       A                D          E/G#          A  
Nothing could be as sweet as it seems, On this very first day down  
Bm7 /  E/G#  / A / F#m / B7 /  E/G#  / A   
They remind me ? son have you so soon forgotten  
F#m       Bm7      E/G#       A            D    /  E/G#  / A / G#7 / C#m  
Often as not it?s rotten inside And the mask soon slips away ??  
  
F#m                  A          G#7     C#m     F#m                A        G#7        
Strange taste of a tropical fruit, Romantic language of the portuguese  
C#m / F#m / A / G#7              C#m     D      E/G#        A / G#7 / C#m  
Melody on a wooden flute, Samba floating in the summer breeze  
  
E/G#      A            F#7        B7            F#7             B7  
It?s allright you can stay asleep, you can close your eyes  
       G#7       C#m               D       B7      E         C#7             F#m       A           Bm7  
You can trust the people of paradise, To call your keeper and tender your goodbyes  
  
E/G#       A       F#m       Bm7      E/G#  / A / F#m / Bm7 / E/G# / A  
Oh what a night wonderful one in a million, Frozen fire brazilian stars  
   D     E/G#      A       B7    E/G#     A         F#m           B7         E/G#  
Oh holy southern cross, Later on take me way downtown in a tin can  
A / F#m /         Bm7                E/G#             A          D                E/G#     A             G#7  
I can?t come down from the bandstand, I'm never thown for such a loss when they say  
C#m / F#m / A / G#7 / C#m / F#m / A / G#7             D / E/G# / A / G#7  
Qdo a nossa  mãe acordar, andaremos ao sol, Qdo ... acordar, cantará pelo sertão  
Qdo ... acordar, todos os filhos saberão      G#7 / C#m / D / E/G# / A  
                                                                Todos os filhos saberão e regozijarão  
 ( E/G#         A            F#7       Bm7      )  
Caught in the rays of rising sun, On the run, from the soldier?s gun  
Shouting out loud from the angry  crowd, the mild, the wild and the hungry child  
  
E/G#         A            F#m7       Bm7        E/G# / A / F#m7   
I?ll tell you there?s more than  dream in Rio  
      Bm7             E/G#         A            D        E/G#       A  
I was there on the very day and my heart came back alive  
Bm7          E/G#         A            F#m7       Bm7   E/G# / A / F#m / Bm7 / E/G#  
There was more, more than the singing voices, More than the up turned faces  
       A   D   E/G# / A / Bm7 / C#m / B7 / C#m / D     E/G#        A / Bm7 / C#m  
And more than the shining eyes, But it?s more than the shining eye  
More than the steaming green, More than the hidden hills  
                                A / Bm7 C#m / D / E/G# / A /Bm7} / C#m  
More than the concret christ, More than a distant land, over a shining sea  
  
( D / E/G# / A / Bm7 / C#m )               
More than the a hungry child, More like another time, Born of a million years, More than a million years

barr 2nd fret and d4,b3.
