Someone to light up my life
[Home Page] [Words&Music] [Up] [Index]
 
Antonio Carlos Jobim - Gene Lees
Portuguese version by Vinícius
E7/9                                   F#7/9     E7/9                             A6
Go on your way with the cloudless blue sky above May all your days be a wonderful song of love
G#7/+5    G#7  C#7/9       C#7/-9         F#m7              Am6
Open your arms and sing of all the hidden hopes you've ever treasured
    Gmaj7         G#dim C#7 F#maj7 Gdim C#7 Bm7 E6
and live out your life  in  peace        
Amaj7         G#dim C#7     F#m7      E7/4  Em7 A7/6 A7 Dmaj7      E7/4     F#7 Bm7
Where shall I look  for the love to replace you         Someone to light up my  life
E7/9         Bm6            E9/+5 A6                             Eb7/4                      G#7
Someone with strange little ways Eyes like the blue autumn haze Someone with your laughing style
        C#m7         F#7            Bm7        E7/9      Amaj7
And the smile that I know will keep hunting me endlessly
    F#m7     Bm7 E7/-9    Amaj7 F#m7      E7/4  Em7 A7/6 A7 Dmaj7     Dbm7/-5 G6 F#7/+5 F#7 Dmaj7
Sometimes in stars or the swift flight of see birds         I catch the mo-       ment of   you
B7/9                   Bm7/-5 Amaj7                     F#dim
that's why I walk all alone   Searching for something unknown
Bm7                        E7/9                   Amaj7 A7/+5 
searching for something or someone to light up my life
Dmaj7                  Bm7/-5 Amaj7                     F#dim
that's why I walk all alone   Searching for something unknown
Bm7                        E7/9                   F7 G7 Eb7 F7 Amaj7
searching for something or someone to light up my life
