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: FF major
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl
[G7G7] from Ipanema goes walking, and when
[Gm7Gm7] she passes, each one [Gb7Gb7] she passes goes
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] a-a-h... [Gb9Gb9]
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] When she walks she's like a samba that
[G7G7] swings so cool and sways so gentle, that when
[Gm7Gm7] she passes, each one [Gb7Gb7] she passes goes
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] a-a-h... [Fmaj7Fmaj7]
[Gbmaj7Gbmaj7] Oh, but I watch her so
[Cb9Cb9] saddly.
[F#m7F#m7] How can I tell her I
[D9D9] love her?
[Gm7Gm7] Yes, I would give my heart
[Eb9Eb9] gladdly. But each
[Am7Am7] day when she walks to the [D7-9] sea, she
[Gm7Gm7] looks straight ahead not at [C7-9] me.
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] Tall and tan and young and lovely the girl
[G7G7] from Ipanema goes walking, and when
[Gm7Gm7] she passes I smile, [Gb7Gb7] but she doesn't
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] see. [Gb7Gb7] : first time through.
Repeat from beginning.
...[Fmaj7Fmaj7] see. [Gb7Gb7] She just doesn't : second time through.
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] see. [Gb7Gb7] No, she doesn't
[Fmaj7Fmaj7] see. [Gb7Gb7] [Fmaj7Fmaj7]
