Only a dream in Rio

( ) More than a distant land, Over a shining sea More than the steaming green, More than the shining eyes Well they tell me It?s only a dream in Rio Nothing could be as sweet as it seems, On this very first day down They remind me ? son have you so soon forgotten Often as not it?s rotten inside And the mask soon slips away ?? Strange taste of a tropical fruit, Romantic language of the portuguese Melody on a wooden flute, Samba floating in the summer breeze It?s allright you can stay asleep, you can close your eyes You can trust the people of paradise, To call your keeper and tender your goodbyes Oh what a night wonderful one in a million, Frozen fire brazilian stars Oh holy southern cross, Later on take me way downtown in a tin can I can?t come down from the bandstand, I'm never thown for such a loss when they say Qdo a nossa mãe acordar, andaremos ao sol, Qdo ... acordar, cantará pelo sertão Qdo ... acordar, todos os filhos saberão Todos os filhos saberão e regozijarão ( ) 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 I?ll tell you there?s more than dream in Rio I was there on the very day and my heart came back alive There was more, more than the singing voices, More than the up turned faces And more than the shining eyes, But it?s more than the shining eye More than the steaming green, More than the hidden hills More than the concret christ, More than a distant land, over a shining sea ( ) More than the a hungry child, More like another time, Born of a million years, More than a million years _______________________________________________________ Contribuição: ricocarioca([email protected]) I think all references to fingered: barr 2nd fret and d4,b3.
