[Verse 1]
Em
As the sun rises
C G
She opens up her hazel, beautiful eyes and
D
Begins
Em
Her baby cries
C G
She picks him up and tells him beautiful lies
D
Again
[Chorus]
Em
She come from the favela
C
Hills of Santa Teresa
G
Underneath the Redeemer
D
And the sun in the sky
Em
She come from the favela
C
Asks me "F# aí, beleza?"
G
Underneath the Redeemer
D
Where the hills come alive
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
(favela)
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
[Verse 2]
Em
And the wind blews
C G D
She lives on lonely streets where nobody goes alone
Em
Just a young girl
C G
Born on the left side of this right-handed world
D
She knows
[Chorus]
Em
She come from the favela
C
Hills of Santa Teresa
G
Underneath the Redeemer
D
And the sun in the sky
Em
She come from the favela
C
Asks me "F# aí, beleza?"
G
Underneath the Redeemer
D
Where the hills come alive
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
(favela)
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
(favela)
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
[Bridge]
C
Deep in the colors and the streets
G
Lost in the funk favela beats
B
Prisioneira
Em
Dancing in the favela
C
Safe in the Ipanema bays
G
We raise a glass on holiday
B
It's a lopsided world when you're a girl
B
Born into nothing at all
[Chorus]
Em
She come from favela
C
Hills of Santa Teresa
G
Underneath the Redeemer
D
And the sun in the sky
Em
She come from the favela
C
Asks me "F# aí, beleza?"
G
Underneath the Redeemer
D
Where the hills come alive
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
Em C G D
She worked the favela night
(favela)
Em
She worked the favela night
