Quando a muito anos fui aprisionado nessa cela fria
                                                                                                                                                           D7 
Do segundo andar da penitenciária lá na rua eu via
                                                                                                                   C 
Quando um jardineiro plantava um Ipê e ao correr dos dias
                                             G                                                 D7                                                         G   G7 
Ele foi crescendo e ganhando vida enquanto eu sofria

Meu ipê florido junto a minha cela
                                       D7                                             G             G7 
Hoje tem altura de minha janela

Só uma diferença há entre nós agora
                                                   D7 
Aqui dentro é noite não tem mais aurora
                                                                                                       G 
Quanta claridade tem você lá fora

Vejo em teu tronco cipó parasita te abraçando forte
                                                                                                                                                                     D7 
Enquanto te abraça suga tua seiva te levando a morte
                                                                                                                       C 
Assim foi comigo ela me abraçava depois me traia

Por isso a matei e agora só tenho sua companhia.
