A tall and tan and young [Db] and handsome boy from Ipanema [B] goes walking in
When he passes each girl he passes those, [A] ah
[D] [B] When he walks he's [Gbm] like a samba that [Ab] swings so cool and sways so gentle that
[Em] When he passes each [G] girl he passes [D] those, [B] ah
[Eb] [Cm] Oh, [Dm] but [Eb] I watch him [Ab] so sadly
[Bb] [Ebm]
[Gb] How can [Bb] I tell him [B] I love [Eb] him?
[G] Yes, [Em]
I give my [Am] heart gladly
[C]
But [Gbm] each day when he walks to [A] the sea
[Em] He looks straight ahead, not at [Db] me
[D] A tall and tan and [Gb] young and handsome [E] boy from [Bm] Ipanema goes [Em] walking in
When he passes [Eb]
me
[D] I smile,
[Eb] [Gm]
oh, I watch [Ab] him so sadly
[D] [C]
[Gb]
Can I tell [Dbm] him I [B] love him?
[G]
I would give my heart gladly
[Dm]
[Gbm] But each day when he walks [B] to the sea
[Em] He looks straight ahead, not at [A]
me
[B] A tall and tan and [E] young and [B] handsome boy [Ab] from [Bm]
Ipanema goes [Db] walking [Em] in
When he passes me
[G] [Gb] I smile, [B] oh, [G] he's so cool and calm and so [Gm] collected
Makes a girl feel a bit neglected
[Em] That boy from [A]
Ipanema doesn't see [E] me
[D]
