Intro

Amaj7 Amaj9 Am7 Am9 x2

Verse 1

Winter time when the city gets to me
I climb on that plane at Kennedy
And fly to the southern hemisphere
Where the sky is clear

Verse 2

I abandon the bleak december chill
There's nothing like Christmas in Brazil
The weather's completely upside down
When we touch down

Pre Chorus

Now that I'm here
Where do I go ?
Lost in Jardin Botanico
The parrots are blue
The sambas are slow
Down in Jardin Botanico

Chorus

Life is easy when your hiding from the rain beneath banana trees
The big leaves keep you dry
Then you feel the evening fall upon the cool Copacabana breeze
The stars light up the sky

Solo

    
    
    
x2 

Pre Chorus

Now that I'm here
Where do I go ?
Lost in Jardin Botanico
The parrots are blue
The sambas are slow
Down in Jardin Botanico

Chorus

Life is easy when your hiding from the rain beneath banana trees
The big leaves keep you dry
Then you feel the evening fall upon the cool Copacabana breeze
The stars light up the sky

Reapeat to fade
