Fmaj7 Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl
G7 from Ipanema goes walking, and when
Gm7 she passes, each one Gb7 she passes goes
Fmaj7 a-a-h... Gb9
Fmaj7 When she walks she's like a samba that
G7 swings so cool and sways so gentle, that when
Gm7 she passes, each one Gb7 she passes goes
Fmaj7 a-a-h... Fmaj7
Gbmaj7 Oh, but I watch her so
C9- saddly.
F#m7 How can I tell her I
D9 love her?
Gm7 Yes, I would give my heart
Eb9 gladdly. But each
Am7 day when she walks to the D7/9- sea, she
Gm7 looks straight ahead not at C7/9- me.
Fmaj7 Tall and tan and young and lovely the girl
G7 from Ipanema goes walking, and when
Gm7 she passes I smile, Gb7 but she doesn't
Fmaj7 see. Gb7 : first time through.
Repeat from beginning.
...{Fmaj7} see. Gb7 She just doesn't : second time through.
Fmaj7 see. Gb7 No, she doesn't
Fmaj7 see. Gb7 Fmaj7
