Music: Antônio Carlos Jobim (1959)
English lyrics: Jon Hendricks and Jessie Cavanaugh
It is interesting to note that Frank Sinatra sings another version of
Desafinado,
with different lyrics (by Gene Lees) over the same melody: "Slightly out of
Tune / Off Key".
Tom Jobim's original is written in F. I think it is easier to play it in F on
the guitar.
Ella version (1962) is in Eb. So please transose -2 if you wish to sing
exactly like Ella.
