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