[intro]

Gmaj7              |Gmaj7              |A7                 |A7

Tall and tan and young and lovely, the girl from Impanema goes walking
and

Am7                |D7b5               |Gmaj7              |Ab13

when she passes each one she passes, goes "Ahh".

Gmaj7              |Gmaj7              |A7                 |A7

When she walks she's like a samba that swings so cool & sways so
gentle that

Am7                |D7b5               |Gmaj7              |Gmaj7

when she passes, each one she passes goes, "Ahh!!".

Fm9                |Fm9                |C#9                |C#9

 [VIII] Oh, but I watch her so [IV] sadly

Abm9               |Abm9               |E9                 |E9

 [XI] How...........can I tell her I [VII] love her?

Am9                |Am9                |F9                 |F9

 [XII] Yes..... I would give my heart [VIII] gladly, but each

Bm7                |E9                 |Am7                |D9

 [all @ VII] day when she walks to the sea, she lks straight ahead,
not at me

Gmaj7              |Gmaj7              |A7                 |A7

Tall and tan and young and lovely, the Girl from Impanema goes walking
and

Am7                |D7b5               |Gmaj7              |D7b5

when she passes, I smile, but she doesn't see she just doesn't

Gmaj7              |D7b5               |Gmaj7              |
see no, she doesn't see [end]
