I Go To Rio chords by Peter Allen

Verse 1:

        E
When my baby
        E7                        A
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio
                  E
De Janeiro, my-oh-me-oh
     E7                             A
I go wild and then I have to do the Samba
And La Bamba
        G
Now I'm not the kind of person
                                 F#m
With a passionate persuasion for dancin'
     F
Or romancin'
      G
But I give in to the rhythm
                                     F#m      G
And my feet follow the beatin' of my hear-eart

Verse 2:

                      E
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my baby
        E7                        A
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio
De Janeiro
            E
I'm a Salsa fellow
        E7
When my baby smiles at me
           G#m      C#    F#m
The sun'll lightens up my life
         B7            Em
And I am free at last, what a blast


Verse 3:

                      F
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my baby
        F7
When my baby smiles at me
            A#
I feel like Tarzan, of the Jungle
                 F
There on the hot sand
         F7                          A#
And in a bungalow while monkeys play above-a,
We-ee make love-a
        G#
Now I'm not the type to let vibrations
                       A#
Trigger my imagination easily
You know that's just not me
      F
But I turn into a tiger
                                 C
Everytime I get beside the one I love
         C7
Woh, oh, woh, woh-oh...,


Verse 4:

                      F
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my baby
        F7                        C
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio
De Janeiro
            F
I'm a Salsa fellow-ow
When my baby smiles at me
           Am      D      Gm
The sun'll lightens up my life
         C7
And I am free at last, what a blast


Verse 5:

                      F
Woh-ho-oh-oh, when my baby
        F7                        C
When my baby smiles at me I go to Rio
De Janeiro
            F
I'm a Salsa fellow-ow
When my baby smiles at me
           Am      D      Gm
The sun'll lightens up my life
         C7
