Intro: D  
 

Verse 1 
 

D                              Bb 
I'm hearing the light from the window 
    D                       C 
I'm seeing the sound of the sea 
   D                               B7 
My feet have come loose from their moorings 
    G                         A 
I'm feeling quite wonderfully free

      G                      Gm 
And I think I will travel to Rio 
D         A/C#      B7 
Using the music for flight 
        G                    Gm 
There's nothing I know of in Rio 
         A                        D 
But it's something to do with the night 
     G                Gm 
It's only a whimsical notion 
   D           A/C#   B7 
To fly down to Rio to-night 
      G                          Gm 
And I probably won't fly down to Rio 
A                      D 
But then again I just might 


Verse 2  

        D                            Bb 
There's wings to the thought behind fancy 
        D                           C 
There's wings to the thought behind play 
    D                     B7 
And dancing to rhythms of laughter 
      G                      A 
Makes laughter the rhythm of rain

     G                      Gm 
So I think I will travel to Rio 
  D                         Bb 
I feel such a sense of well-being 
    D                        C 
The problems have come to be solved 
    D                             B7 
And what I thought was proper for battle 
  G                     A 
I see now is proper for love
