Introdução: D7M/9 G7M/9 D7M/9 G7M/9 
 
D6/9 
Tall and tan and young and lovely 
    E7/9 
The girl from Ipanema goes walking 
    Em7/9 
And when she passes 
     A7/13                 D7M/9   Bbm6   D7M 
Each one she passes goes "a-a-ah" 
                             D7M/9  
When she walks she's like a samba that 
E7/9 
Swings so cool and sways so gentle 
     Em7/9 
That when she passes 
     A7/13                  D7M/9        D6/9 
Each one she passes goes "a-a-ah" 
Eb7M                   G#7 
Oh, but I watch her so sadly 
Ebm7                 B7   B7/13 
How can I tell her I love her 
Em7/9                      Gm6 
Yes, I would give my heart gladly 
         F#m7                      F#dim 
But each day when she walks to the sea 
    Em7                         A7/9- 
She looks straight ahead not at me 
D7M                  D7M/9 
Tall and tan and young and lovely 
    E7/9 
The girl from Ipanema goes walking 
    Em7/9 
And when she passes 
  A7/13                       D7M/9 
I smile, but she doesn't see 
  A7/13              D7M/9 
She just doesn't see 
  A7/13            D7M/9 
No she doesn't see
