(Gbmaj7)Oh,

(F#m9)How

can I tell her I (D7)love her?

(Gm9)Yeah,

I would give my heart (Eb7)glad ly.

But in (Am7)stead when she walks to the (D7b5)sea,

she (Gm7)looks straight a head, not at (C7b9)me.

(Fmaj9)Tall and tan and young and love ly, the girl from I pa nem’ goes walk ing, and when she pass es,

I (Fmaj9)go

(Gb9)dee dee dee did dle dee dee (Fmaj9)do.

Tall and tan and young and love ly, the girl from I pa nem’ goes walk ing and when she pass es, I smile,

(Fmaj9)but she does n’t see.

(Gb9)She ain’t look in’ at me.

(Gb9)Oo.
