[Ab]
[G] [Ab]
[G] Tall and tan and young and lovely, [A] the girl from Cape Nima goes [Am] walking and when she passes,
each [D] one she [G] passes goes.
When she walks she's like a samba that [A] swings so cool and moves so gentle [Am] that when she
passes [D] each one she [G] passes goes.
Ah,
[Ab] oh but I watch [Abm] her so sadly, [Db]
[B] how [Abm] can I tell [Bm] her I love her?
[E]
[C] Yes, [Am] I would give [Cm] my heart gladly, [F]
[Bm] but each day when she walks [Bbm] to the sea, [Am] she looks straight
ahead [Ab] not at me.
[Bm] Tall and tan and young and lovely, [A] the girl from Cape Nima goes walking [C] and when she passes
[D] I smile but she [Bm] doesn't see, [Ab] no she [Bm] doesn't see, she just [D] doesn't see.

I smile but [Bm] she doesn't see, [Ab] she [Bm] just doesn't see, [D] no [Bm] she doesn't see, she just doesn't see.
