Carioca
(Blue Carioca)
Intro: G   /   Am   /   G   /   Am9  to verse

       G                                              Am7

The stars in the night played a Blue Carioca

      G                                                  Cm7

The moon shone outside as the planet revolved

      Bm7                                                    A

The wind was caressed with the fragance of summer

      Am7                                           D

The night's gentle nature impelled us to love

      G                                     Am7

And I sat alone on a beach by a palm tree

G                                               Cm7

Your silhouette cast a glow on the sand

       Bm7                                                                        A

And there with the sound of the waves and the smell of gardenias

Am7                           D                                  G

Two lovers sailed on romance through a magical land

B7                                                             G

Dancing and dancing all night to that Blue Carioca

B7                                                C

Living the wonderful dream that remains

Am7                                       G

Caught up inside of the Blue Carioca

Am7                                    D-Daug

Two lovers fly on its lovely refrain

BREAK: G   /   Am7   /   D  repeat

G                        Am7  D

Glide, glide on Carioca

G                            Am7  D

Glide, glide on out to sea

G                        Am7  D

Glide, glide on Carioca

G                            Am7  D

Glide, glide on out to sea

BREAK
Chorus to fade
