Desafinado (Off Key)

by Antonio Carlos Brasiliero de Almeida Jobim (a.k.a. Tom Jobim)

as performed on "Getz/Gilberto" by Stan Getz and Joao Gilberto featuring
Antonio Carlos Jobim; Verve V6-8545, 1963.

Transcribed by Andy Holaday March-April 1998


Style notes:

The song is in the bossa nova style; the guitar is played finger style; the
language is Portuguese.  The following basic two measure rhythm pattern is
prevalent throughout the song:

 "X"               "Y"
  1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +   1 + 2 + 3 + 4 +
|-----------------|-----------------|
|(X)--X-----X---Y-|-----Y-----Y---Y-|
|(X)--X-----X---Y-|-----Y-----Y---Y-|
|(X)--X-----X---Y-|-----Y-----Y---Y-|
|(X)--X-----X---Y-|-----Y-----Y---Y-|
|-----------------|-----------------|

The chord for any given measure is often (but not always) played on the
last upbeat of the preceding measure, as the "Y" chord above.  For the sake
of clarity however the chords are shown above the whole (or nearly so)
measure.  Feel free to vary this rhythm as feels good to you.  Key rhythms
are denoted.

For extra flare you can alternate root and fifth in the bass on the first
and third downbeats while you play the chords on the rhythm pattern above.

And for those who don't know, "D.S. al coda" (at the end of the piece)
means return to the "Signe" (in the third measure) and repeat until the "To
coda" instruction is reached, then jump to the section labeled "Coda" and
finish the song.  The lyrics are sung only the first time through.
