Antonio Carlos Jobim - Gene Lees
Portuguese lyrics

Am7 Am6 G13/-9 Gm7 C7/6 C7/+5 Fmaj7 Fm6 Em7 Am7 D7 Fm6 Am6

Am6                          G13/-9
Quiet nights of quiet stars, quiet chords from my guitar

Gm7             C7/6    C7/+5  Fmaj7   F6
floating on the silence that surrounds us

Fm6                              Em7            A7/+5
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams, quiet walks by quiet streams

Am6                           Dm7/A             Dm7/-5
And the window looking on the mountains and the sea, how lovely

Am6                         G13/-9
This is where I want to be, here with you so close to me,

Gm7             C7/6    C7/+5     Fmaj7 F6
until the final flicker of life's ember

Fm6       Fm6             Em7           Am7
I who was lost and lonely,    believing life was only

Dm7/A           Fm6                   Em7/-5 A7/+5 A7 Dm9/A                 Fm6             Am6
A bitter tragic joke, have found with you                   the meaning of existence, oh my love

Am7 Am6 G13/-9 Gm7 C7/6 C7/+5 Fmaj7 Fm6 Em7 Am7 D7 Fm6 Am6
