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