Insensatez/How insensitive

The lyrics in potuguese are so deep. Try to understand it! So nice!

I try to aproach to more I can... to the fingering of Tom.

Verse 1:

Bm7          F#/A#              Am6

A,   insensatez, Que vo-  c=EA   fez

                           E7/G#    =20
When she told me that she loved me                                    =20
Cora=E7ao mais sem      cui-da----do=20

G6              C7M               C#m7(b5)
How unmoved and cold I must have seemed
Fez   chorar de dor,     O seu a--mor

          F#(b9b13) Bm(7M)         Bm7
When she told me so since----rely
Um     a-mor tao  delica------do =20

D7/A               Ab=BA  =20
Why, she must have asked?
Ah,  meu co---ra---co

           G7M        Em7(9)        Bm7 =20
Did I just turn and stare in icy----silence
Foi fraco asim      assim tao desal-ma-do

D7/A           C#7/G#             Em6/G =20
What was I to say    What can you say=20
Ah,  meu cora-cao    Quem nunca a-mou

        F#7(b13)     Bm7
When a love afair is over.=20
Nao  mere-ce ser   a-ma-do.

Verse 2:
Now, she's gone away, And I'm alone
Vai, meu coracao, ouve a razao


With a memory of her last look
Usa s=F3 sinceridade

Vague, and drawn and sad, I see it still
Quem semeia vento, Diz a razao=20

All her heart break in that last look
Colhe sempre tempestade

How she must have asked
Vai meu caracao


Could I just turn dan stare in icy silence
Pede perdao, perdao, apaixonado


What, was I To do, what can you do
Vai, porque quem nao, pede pardao


When a love affair is over.=20
Nao =E9 nunca perdoado.
