water t o drink

(agua de beber)
words by norman gimbel
music by antonio carlos jobim

This arrangement keeps the basis of Jobim's original accompaniment and


adds melody. The rhythm should be percussive and a certain amount of
freedom should be exercised to give the song feeling.

Verse 2: Portuguese lyrics


The rain can fall on distant deserts
The rain can fall upon the sea Eu quis amar Mas five medo
The rain can fall upon the flower E quis salvar meu corra@io
Since the rain has to fall let it fall on me. Mas o amor sabe um segredo
0 medo pode matar o seu cora@o
Agua de beber
~ g u de
a beber camari Agua de beber.. .
Agua de beber
Agua de beber camari Eu nuncafiz coisa tdo certa
Agua de beber Entrei pra escola do perddo
Agua de beber camark A minha casa vive aberta
Abre todas as portas do corapio

Agua de beber.. .

Eu sempre live uma certeza


Que sd me deu desilusdo
E que o amor E uma tristeza
Muita magoa demais para um cora@o

Agua de beber ...
