Key: F major
[Chorus 1]
Fmaj7Tall and tan and young and lovely,
the G7girl from Ipanema goes walking,
and Gm7when she passes, each Gb7one she passes goes
Fmaj7Ahh...Gb9  
[Verse 1]
Fmaj7When she walks she's like a samba
that G7swings so cool and sways so gentle,
that Gm7when she passes, each Gb7one she passes goes
Fmaj7Ahh...Gb9  
Gbmaj7Oh, but I watch her so Cb9sadly.
F#m7How can I tell her I D9love her?
Gm7Yes, I would give my heart Eb9gladly.
But each Am7day when she walks to the D7-9sea,
she Gm7looks straight ahead not at C7-9me.
[Chorus 2]
Fmaj7Tall and tan and young and lovely,
the G7girl from Ipanema goes walking,
and Gm7when she passes, I Gb7smile,
but she doesn't Fmaj7see.Gb9  
[Verse 2]
Fmaj7When she walks she's like a samba
that G7swings so cool and sways so gentle,
that Gm7when she passes, each Gb7one she passes goes
Fmaj7Ahh...Gb9  
Gbmaj7Oh, but I watch her so Cb9sadly.
F#m7How can I tell her I D9love her?
Gm7Yes, I would give my heart Eb9gladly.
But each Am7day when she walks to the D7-9sea,
she Gm7looks straight ahead not at C7-9me.
[Chorus 3]
Fmaj7Tall and tan and young and lovely,
the G7girl from Ipanema goes walking,
and Gm7when she passes, I Gb7smile,
but she doesn't Fmaj7see.Gb9  
She just doesn't Fmaj7see.Gb9  
No, she doesn't Fmaj7see.Gb9  Fmaj7
