[Verse 1]
Cm
As the sun rises
Ab D#
She opens up her hazel, beautiful eyes and
A#
Begins
Cm
Her baby cries
Ab D#
She picks him up and tells him beautiful lies
A#
Again
[Chorus]
Cm
She come from the favela
Ab
Hills of Santa Teresa
D#
Underneath the Redeemer
A#
And the sun in the sky
Cm
She come from the favela
Ab
Asks me "D aí, beleza?"
D#
Underneath the Redeemer
A#
Where the hills come alive
Cm Ab D# A#
She worked the favela night
Cm Ab D# A#
She worked the favela night
(favela)
Cm Ab D# A#
She worked the favela night
[Verse 2]
Cm
And the wind blews
Ab D# A#
She lives on lonely streets where nobody goes alone
Cm
Just a young girl
Ab D#
Born on the left side of this right-handed world
A#
She knows
[Chorus]
Cm
She come from the favela
Ab
Hills of Santa Teresa
D#
Underneath the Redeemer
A#
And the sun in the sky
Cm
She come from the favela
Ab
Asks me "D aí, beleza?"
D#
Underneath the Redeemer
A#
Where the hills come alive

She worked the favela night

She worked the favela night
[Bridge]
Ab
Deep in the colors and the streets
D#
Lost in the funk favela beats
G
Prisioneira
Cm
Dancing in the favela
Ab
Safe in the Ipanema bays
D#
We raise a glass on holiday
G
It's a lopsided world when you're a girl
G
Born into nothing at all
[Chorus]
Cm
She come from favela
Ab
Hills of Santa Teresa
D#
Underneath the Redeemer
A#
And the sun in the sky
Cm
She come from the favela
Ab
Asks me "D aí, beleza?"
D#
Underneath the Redeemer
A#
Where the hills come alive
Cm Ab D# A#
She worked the favela night
Cm Ab D# A#
She worked the favela night
(favela)

She worked the favela night
