Intro: Fmaj7  F#maj7  Fmaj7   F#maj7   

Fmaj7   
Tall and tan and young and lovely    
    
     G7    
The girl from Ipanema goes walking,    

    Gm7                   F#7                                             Fmaj7    F#maj7  Fmaj9  F#maj7   
And when she passes, each one she passes goes, "Ahhh."    
    
    
 Fmaj7    
When she walks, she's like a samba    
    
      G7    
That swings so cool and sways so gentle,    
    
      Gm7                  F#7                    Fmaj7    
That when she passes, each one she passes goes, "Ahhh."    
    
    
Bridge:    
    
F#7+      F#7             B9    
Oh, but I watch her so sadly;    
    
F#m7                   D9    
How can I tell her I love her?    
    
 Gm                         Eb7    
Yes, I would give my heart gladly,    
    
         Am7                      D7/5-      
But each day when she walks to the sea,    
    
     Gm7                         C13+   
She looks straight ahead, not at me.    
    
    
Fmaj7    
Tall and tan and young and lovely    
    
    G7    
The girl from Ipanema goes walking,    
    
    Gm7                 F#7    
And when she passes,  I smile,    
    
               Fmaj7   F#7                Fmaj7    F#7    
But she doesn't see,     no she doesn't see,    
    
               Fmaj7    
No she doesn't see.
