Eb9 [x6566x]
De graca e ela menina que vem

E que passa num doce balanco a caminho do mar

Moca do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema
O seu balancado e mais que um poema
E a coisa mais linda que eu ja vi passar
Chorus 1:
Dmaj7 G13 [3x345x]
Ah! Por que estou tao sozinho?
[Dm9]Ah! Por que tudo e tao [Bb13]triste?
[Ebm9]Ah! A beleza que e[Cb13]xiste

A beleza que nao e so minha

Ah! se ela soubesse que quando ela passa
O mundo sorrindo se enche de graca
E fica mais lindo por causa do amor
Verse 4:
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes goes "ahh"
Verse 5:
When she walks she's like a samba
That swings so cool and sways so gentle
That when she passes, each one she passes goes "ahh"
Chorus 2:
Oh, but he [1: watches 2: sees her] so sadly
How can he tell her he loves her?
Yes, he would give his heart gladly
But each day when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead not at he
Verse 6:
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes he smiles, but she doesn't see

[repeat cborus 2]
[repeat verse 6]
Coda:
[D9] She just doesn't[Db6/9] see
[D9] No, she doesn't[Db6/9] see
[D9] But she doesn't[Db6/9] see
[D9] She doesn't[Db6/9] see
D9 Db6/9 [fade]
No, she doesn't see
