I've looked all over the internet and can't find anything about this tune other than it was written by the Brazilian guitarist Baden Powell. I'd love to have the chord progression but I'm not able to work it out for myself and I'm too lazy to try and harmonise a transcription of the melody (blushes suitably). Does anyone have the lead sheet or chord sheet? Thanks for looking and I'd appreciate any information.

Thank you - I did look on there but no listing, although it is on this list Index of compositions and versions sadly no details other than the name. It's run by his son (Philippe Baden Powell) but the 'contact us' info specifically says don't ask for missing tabs and I wouldn't dream of upsetting him.

Apparently, his father was a scouting enthusiast, his full name is Baden Powell de Aquino

I never know when you're being serious - that's a good thing 😉

You can get a reasonable idea of the chord changes by running the recording through Chordify.

I tried that and the result is this. If you can't see the linked analysis then I can try and type it up here.

The results have to be treated with caution as Chordify doesn't do well with complex chord extensions and sometimes sees changes that aren't there. But if you can work out the song structure and then compare different choruses you can get close.
