Solo over Verses 1 and 2 (Stan--man could that guy solo!)
Portuguese Verses 1 and 2 (Joao)
English Verses 1 and 2 (Astrud)

I think they might collapse the last two times together, but can't recall 
and only have the arrangement from _Elis and Tom_ (Verve) here, which is 
substantially different.  (_Elis and Tom_ is absolutely superlative, by 
the way--get it if you can as there won't be any more pressings of it in the 
US.)

Verse 1:  (English lyrics shown with corresponding Portuguese lyrics 
directly below--listen for the proper rhythm and phrasing, which is tough)

Part A:

D9
Quiet nights of quiet stars,
Um cantinho, um violao

Abo
Quiet chords from my guitar,
Esse amor uma cancao,

g7                      Gb7   Fmaj7 (*)   
Floating on the silence that surrounds me.
Pra fazer felice a quem se ama.

Part B:

f7
Quiet thoughts and quiet dreams,
Muita calma pra pensar,

e7                   F+7
Quiet walks by quiet streams,
E ter tempo pra sonhar,

D9                              d7            Abo       (**) 
And a window looking out on the mountains and the sea, how lovely!
Da janela ve-se a Corcovado o Redentor, que lindo!

Verse 2:

Part A:

D9
This is how I want to be,
Quero a vida sempres assim,

Abo
Here with you so close to me,
Com voce perto de mim,

g7                      Gb7       Fmaj7
Until the final flicker of life's ember.
Ate a apagar da velha chama.

Part B:

f7             f6 
I who was lost and lonely,
E eu que era triste,

e7                 F+7
Believing life was only,
Descrente desse mundo,

d7              G(b9b13)             e7    a7
A bitter tragic joke have found with you,
Ao encontrar voce eu conheci,

d7             G13  G(b9b13)          C  Bb9  F+7  (**)
The meaning of existence, oh my love.  
O que e felicidade, meu amor.

(*)  They often improvise here playing around with a7, g7, and Fmaj7.  
(**)  Listen carefully here.  The shifts are tough.
