~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Chega de Saudade Joao Gilberto Chega de Saudade ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Tabbed by: Connor O. Tuning: Standard Chega de Saudade Album: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQC4Ye7hr9Y Christophe Rousseau: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z7B_TDUeZac Just my own transcription of Christophe's very accurate interpretation. Keep in mind that the mutes aren't really that important for the real version. I just included them to stay accurate to Christophe's version. Last bar of the outro is my own creation. Comment or message any ideas or corrections. Please rate my tab. If you've got problems with the tab, I'd encourage you to contact me with those problems so I can fix the tab or provide advice for playing. Don't just give me a poor rating and not give me any feedback. The idea is for us all to work together to create a perfect finished product. This tab just represents the best I can do. It's definitely up for peer review. Key: s - slap mute x - mute * - beat progression.

ela Não pode ser, diz-lhe numa prece Que ela regresse, porque eu não posso Mais sofrer. Chega de saudade a realidade É que sem ela não há paz, não há beleza É só tristeza e a melancolia Que não sai de mim, não sai de mim, não sai Mas se ela voltar, se ela voltar, Que coisa linda, que coisa louca Pois há menos peixinhos a nadar no mar Do que os beijinhos que eu darei Na sua boca , dentro dos meus braços Os abraços hão de ser, milhões de abraços Apertado assim, colado assim, calado assim Abraços e beijinhos e carinhos sem ter fim Que é pra acabar com este negócio de você Viver sem mim. Não quero mais este negócio Que é pra acabar com este negócio de você Viver sem mim. Não quero mais este negócio Que é pra acabar com este negócio de você Viver sem mim. Não quero mais este negócio Go, my sadness And tell her that without her it can't be Tell her in an entreaty that she should return (Beg her to return) Because I can't suffer anymore Enough missing her, the reality Is that without her there's no peace, no beauty Only sadness and melancholy That it doesn't leave me, it doesn't leave me, it doesn't But if she returns, if she returns What a lovely thing, what a crazy thing Because there are less fish swimming in the sea Then the kisses that I will give to her mouth Within my arms the hugs Have to be millions of hugs held tight that way United that way, silent that way Hugs and kisses and caresses without end What is going to finish with this business Of you living far from me I don't want anymore this business Of you living this way Let's leave this business Of you living without me
