Brazil

Lyrics: S.K. Russell
Music: Ary Barroso

6 8 9 9
Brazil, where hearts

8 8 -8 -8 7 -8
were entertaining June.

9 9 8 8 -8 -8 7 -8
We stood beneath an amber moon,

9 9 8 8 -8 -8 7 7
and softly murmured “someday soon”.

-7 -6 -7 8 8 8 -8
We kissed and clung together.

9 9 9 9 -9 8 -8 8 9
Then tomorrow was another day,

9 9 9 -9 8 -8 8 9
the morning found me miles away,

9 9 9 -9 8 -8 8 -9
with still a million things to say.

-9 -9 -9 8 8 -8 7 -7 -8
Now, when twilight dims the sky above,

7 7 7 9 8 7 7
recalling thrills of our love,

-8 -8 -8 -8 -8 7 8
there’s one thing I’m certain of;

-7 -6 -7 8 -7 -6 -7 7
Return I will to Old Brazil.
