the girl from ipanema
(garota de ipanema)
original words by vinicius de moraes
english lyric by norman gimbel
music by antonio carlos jobim
The feel of this classic Bossa Nova should be established in the opening
four bars. Use a mixture of strumming and fingerstyle and try to keep the
tempo even throughout the piece. Ipanema is the name given to a sand spit
between the lagoon and sea next to Copacabana beach.
