Desafinado (Englisch) (midi)

C D

1. If you say my singing is off key, my love,

Dm G Em - A

you would hurt my feelings, don`t you see, my love?

Dm E A A7

I wish I had an ear like yours, a voice that would behave,

D D7 Dm - G

all I have is feeling and the voice God gave.

C D

2. You insist my music goes against the rules,

Dm G Em - A

yes, but rules were never made for lovesick fools.

Dm E Am

I wrote this song for you, but you don`t care,

E G E - G

it`s a crooked song, ah, but my heart is there !

E G B7

The thing that you would see if you would play the part,

E G B7

is even if I`m out of tune I have a gentle heart.

Bm Em Am - D

I took your picture with my trusty Rolleiflex,

Dm F Dm - G

and now all I have developed is a complex.

+ Instr. = verse 1

C D

3. Possibly in vain, I hope you weaken, oh, my love,

Dm G Em A

and forget those rigid rules that undermine my dream of

Dm E Am D

a life of love and music with someone who`ll understand,

Dm F

that even though I may be out of tune,

Dm F

when I attempt to say how much I love you.

Dm G

And all that matters is the message that I bring.

C

Which is: my dear one, I love you. (capo 5th) (George Michael)
