[Verse 1]
Here I [F#m7]am, strolling down Atlantic [Emaj7]Avenue, with the s[Cmaj7]unlight in my [Dmaj7]eyes,
Here I [F#m7]am, and there's nothing I would [Emaj7]rather do,
When I [Cmaj7]want some peace of [Dmaj7]mind!
[Verse 2]
Oh---, [Bm7] I leave the smoke of [C#m7]Rio behind, as e[Dmaj7]vening starts to [E7sus4]fly,
[Bm7] I want to feel the o[C#m7]cean breeze,
[Dmaj7] [D#m7b5] [E7sus4]
Where the mountains kiss the sky--------, y------!)
[Verse 3]
So, come[F#m7] on, down Atlantic [Emaj7]Avenue, let the [Cmaj7]samba take a[Dmaj7] hold of you,
'Cause, I [F#m7]know, there is no place like the [Emaj7]Avenue,
When that [Cmaj7]music gets a[Dmaj7] hold of you!
[Verse 4]
Woh - oh, [Bm7] drive along to I[C#m7]panema there's [Dmaj7]always time to [E7sus4]spare,
[Bm7] Forget the troubles[C#m7] of the world, when they[Dmaj7] get to much to[D#m7b5] bare---!
[E7sus4] Oh - oh, woh - oh, oh - oh!
[Verse 5]
| [F#m7] / / / / | [Emaj7] / / [Cmaj7] / / | [Dmaj7] / / / / |
Won't you, please, come[F#m7] on... down Atlantic A[Emaj7]venue?
[Cmaj7] [Dmaj7]
Nah - nah, na, nah 'n' nah - ah-------! Ah------! Ah------!
[Bridge]
F[G#m7]lying down to [C#7]Rio, never t[F#m7]hought I would [B7]be,
Wa[Bm]lking by the [Fdim]ocean, here [F#m]today, [F#m7] no,
[Bm] Pretty soon I've [Fdim]got to leave,[F#m7] but I know my h[B7]eart will [E7sus4]stay----!
[F7sus4]Woh -oh, oh---, oh, oh...
[Verse 6]
[D#maj7] [Fmaj7] [C#maj7] [D#maj7]
...oh---, Atlantic Avenue! Oh---, oh, oh!
Here I[Gm7] am, strolling down Atlantic [Fmaj7]Avenue, with the [C#maj7]sunlight in my[D#maj7] eyes,
Oh, here I [Gm7]am, and there's nothing I would [Fmaj7]rather do,
When I[C#maj7] want some peace of[D#maj7] mind----!
(When I want some peace of mind!)
[Verse 7]
So, come [Gm7]on, down Atlantic [Fmaj7]Avenue, let the [C#maj7]samba take a[D#maj7] hold of you,
'Cause I [Gm7]know... woo, there is no place like the [Fmaj7]Avenue,
When that[C#maj7] music gets a[D#maj7] hold of you!
[Verse 8]
Here I [Gm7]am, strolling down Atlantic [Fmaj7]Avenue,
With the s[Dbmaj7]unlight in my [Ebmaj7]eyes,
(Oh----, sun------light in my eyes!)
[Verse 9]
Here I[Gm7] am, and there's nothing I would [Fmaj7]rather do,
When I[Dbmaj7] want some peace of[Ebmaj7] mind----!
(When I want some peace of mind!)
