[] [Fmaj7] When she walks she's like a samba that [G7] swings so cool and sways so gentle, that when [Gm7] she passes, each one [Gb7] she passes goes [] --... [] [Gbmaj7] Oh, but I watch her so [Cb9] saddly. [F#m7] How can I tell her I [D9] love her? [Gm7] Yes, I would give my heart [Eb9] gladdly. But each [Am7] day when she walks to the [D7-9] sea, she [Gm7] looks straight ahead not at [C7-9] me. [Fmaj7] Tall and tan and young and lovely the girl [G7] from Ipanema goes walking, and when [Gm7] she passes I smile, [Gb7] but she doesn't [Fmaj7] see. [Gb7] : first time through. Repeat from beginning. ...[Fmaj7] see. [Gb7] She just doesn't : second time through. [Fmaj7] see. [Gb7] No, she doesn't [] see. [] [] Douglas French
