Sebastian,  See if this helps....

On guitar I use essentially the same arrangement as on the trellis...with a few mods to make it work for my ear.

My fist line goes :  Dm7,  Db7,  Cm sus,  B7b5 (importamt !  make sure you nail the F on the top string here)  F is the ' star' note of the One Note Samba.  Also,  when you hit the B6 wind-up,  use a full six string B6 up on the sixth fret......a five string cheaer off the first fret doesn't work 

 To review...make sure you have a F on the top the first four chords.  The main adjustment here is that the Cm7 stinks and the Cm sus is perfect.  Let me know if this solves your problem.

Chas.
