Hmm—I suspect the first repeat is a mistake …
Here with slightly different chord values from Jobim's own arrangement in the "Jobim Cancioneiro" book
NB I expanded the first two measures just so you can see the C7b9sus, but it's still 4/4! Melody starts at measure 3

Desafinado (intro from Jobim Cancioneiro) - Antônio Carlos Jobim

On a TV show some years ago, Herbie, Jobim and company played the four bars before the bridge like this: AMaj7 - G13+11 - FMaj7 - E7+9. Made it more interesting than playing the first four bars of the bridge twice.

The album "Jazz Samba" affected my musical growth and development in a big way.

I still use that intro except with chords.
