The Girl From Ipanema
(Garota De Ipanema)
Music by Antonio Carlos Jobim
Original words by Vinicius de Moraes
English Translation by Norman Gimbel
Bossa Nova in half-time (4/4 -> 2/4)
Key: F major
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
Cb9 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]
