English title: One Note Samba
Portuguese Title: Samba de uma nota so
Composer: Antonio Carlos Jobim
Transcriber: Doug Nickerson

Transcribed from recordings and from viewing guitarist
Charlie Byrd on video tape.

Playing tip: The idea is to keep the note F (the "Uma
nota so") on top, and the note Bb on the second
phrase. Since the chords inclide some muted strings
(string that are not played) the chords shown could be
best played with the fingers, or a pick and fingers.


The meter is 4/4, and I've indicated bar lines by (|)
and
individual beats with the forward slash (/) where
necessary.

 Verse:

 Pick up: This is...

 Just a...
 Dmin7 | C#7 | Cmin7(11) | B7(b5)
 Dmin7 | C#7 | Cmin7(11) | B7(b5)
 Fmin7(11) | Emin7(b5) | Eb7 | Ab7(Bb on top)
               //     //
 Dmin7 | C#7 | B7(b5) Cmin7(11) | BbMaj

 Bridge:
 Ebmin7| Ab7 | DbMaj7 | DbMaj6
 Dbmin7 | Gb7 | BMaj7 |
 nearly nothing...
        A7 (b13)

 Verse:

 Dmin7 | C#7 | Cmin7(11) | B7(b5)

 Fmin7(11) | Emin7(b5) | Eb7 | Ab7(Bb on top)
               //     //
 Dmin7 | C#7 | B7(b5) Cmin7(11) | BbMaj [End]
