Chord progression for Antonio Carlos Jobim's Fotografia.

Fotografia consists of a 16 bar sequence repeated twice with the last chord of the second repeat altered to allow the tune to flow into a four-bar pattern which is repeated until the tune fades out. The four bar fade out pattern actually begins in the next to last bar of the second repeat. The last eight bars of the score represent two repetitions of the four bar fadeout pattern.
