One Note Samba (Samba de Uma Nota So)

A uniquely beautiful song with interesting chords. Play them with my chord forms and the first (e)

string will not be used at all. The “one note” remains ringing through most of the changes.

Verse

[Bm7] [Bb7]

This is just a little samba

[D7sus] [D7b5]

built upon a single note

[Bm7] [Bb7]

Other notes are bound to follow

[D7sus] [D7b5]

but the root is still that note

[G7sus] [G7b5]

Now this new one is the consequence

[C6] [F9]

of the one we've just been through

[Bm7] [Bb7]

As I'm bound to be the unavoidable

[D7sus] [D7b5] [G6]

consequence of you

Bridge

[Cm7] [F7/C]

There's so many people who can talk and talk and talk

[F7] [Bbmaj7]

And just say nothing or nearly nothing

[Bbm7] [Eb7/Bb]

I have used up all the scale I know and at the end I've come

[Abmaj7] [D7sus] [D7b5]

To nothing, or nearly nothing

Verse

[Bm7] [Bb7]

So I come back to my first note

[D7sus] [D7b5]

as I must come back to you

[Bm7] [Bb7]

I will pour into that one note

[D7sus] [D7b5]

all the love I feel for you

[G7sus] [G7b5] [C6] [F9]

Anyone who wants the whole show -re-mi-fa-so-la-si-do

[Bm7] [Bb7]

He will find himself with no show

[D7sus] [D7b5] [G6]

Better play the note you know
