052 - Girl From Ipanema
Verse 1
Tall and tan and young and love-ly
the girl from I-pa-ne-ma goes walk-ing,
and when she pass-es, each one
she pass-es goes ^ `aah!'
Verse 2
When she walks she's like a sam-ba
that swings so cool and sways so gen-tle,
that when she pass-es, each one
she pass-es goes ^`aah!’
Bridge
Oh– (triplets) ^-but- I watch-her-so sad-ly.
How– (triplets) ^-can-I tell-her-I love her?
Yes–(triplets) ^-I-would give-my-heart gladly.
(triplets) ^-But-each day-when-she walks-to-the sea,
She (triplets) looks-straight-a head-not-at me.
Verse 3
Tall and tan and young and love-ly,
The girl from I-pa-ne-ma goes walk-ing,
and when she passes I smile,
But (triplets) she-does-n't see.
