The Girl From Ipanema Chords

(ver. 1)
Astrud Gilberto
[Intro]
Cmaj7
Dum, dum, dum! Brrring, boom -boom...brrring, boom -boom!


[Verse 1]
Cmaj7
Tall and tanned, and young and lovely,
     D7
The girl from Ipanema goes walking,
     Dm7                 Db7b5               Cmaj7
And when she passes, each one she passes goes  ...'Ahhh!'


[Verse 2]
Cmaj7    
When she walks she's like a samba,
      D7
That swings so cool, and sways so gently,
     Dm7                  Db7b5               Cmaj7
That when she passes, each one she passes goes  ...'Ahhh!'


[Verse 3]
Dbmaj7                   Gb9
  Oh, but he watches so sadly,
Db7sus2                  A13
 How can he tell her he loves her?
D7sus2                         Bb7
 Yes, he would give his heart gladly,
         Em7                        A7b9
But each day, when she walks to the sea,
     Dm7                        G7b5
She looks straight ahead, not at he!


[Verse 4]
Cmaj7
 Tall and tanned, and young and lovely,
     D7
The girl from Ipanema goes walking,
    Dm7                 Db7b5
And when she passes, he smiles,
               Cmaj7
But she doesn't see!
