Music by Antonio Carlos Jobim

Original words by Vinicius de Moraes

Bossa Nova in half-time (4/4 -> 2/4)

Key: F major

Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl

from Ipanema goes walking, and when

she passes, each one [Gb7] she passes goes

a-a-h... [Gb9]

When she walks she's like a samba that

swings so cool and sways so gentle, that when

she passes, each one [Gb7] she passes goes

a-a-h... [Fmaj7]

Oh, but I watch her so

saddly.

How can I tell her I

love her?

Yes, I would give my heart

gladdly. But each

day when she walks to the [D7-9] sea, she

looks straight ahead not at [C7-9] me.

Tall and tan and young and lovely the girl

from Ipanema goes walking, and when

she passes I smile, [Gb7] but she doesn't

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]
