This song is so colorful for various reasons. Firstly, there is use of secondary dominants (G7, which is the V of V) before transitioning to the IIm7. Secondly, Gb7(#11) works as the V7 because it’s actually an inversion of C7(b5), i.e., Gb-Bb-C-Eb. So you can use the C Altered Scale, since the chord is an altered seventh.

Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, each one she passes
Goes "a-a-a-h"
When she walks she's like a samba
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 "a-a-a-h"
Oh, but I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day as she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking
And when she passes, I smile, but she
Doesn't see. She just doesn't see
No, she just doesn't

Bonjour. Je découvre ce joli backing track. Pour ma part, je préfère penser les mesures 1 et 5 du pont en F#M7 et F#m7. Ca m'évite de trop naviguer entre les dièses et les bémols.

Hey these are nice! ...enjoyable to play with. Not as stiff as some. Subbed

A-w-e-s-o-m-e . I used for playing along on the piano though. I hope you don't mind hehe :)

Olha que coisa mais linda mais cheia de graça
É ela menina que vem e que passa
Num doce balanço a caminho do mar
Moça do corpo dourado do sol de Ipanema
O seu balançado é mais que um poema
É a coisa mais linda que eu já vi passar
But I watch her so sadly
How can I tell her I love her
Yes, I would give my heart gladly
But each day, when she walks to the sea
She looks straight ahead, not at me
Tall and tan and young and lovely
The girl from Ipanema goes walking and
When she passes, I smile but she doesn't see
She doesn't see
She just doesn't see

HI, like your work, nice to playalong with piano too, to comp an improv too

[OurHealthMatters]

thanks for these arrangements - for this song, the original key (D) is much nicer for guitarists :)

Apresentei essa música na minha escola.

The official arrangement to my knowledge starts in Db and uses "69 chords" and also uses second inversions (5th on the bass) on some chords. Sure it can be reharmonized.

Is there a tab or score for the background guitar? Comping is on point

[sambac]

Your tracks sound very good, but I can barely see the chord symbols, and when they stay dark till the beat, I don't know what chord I'll be on enough in advance.Pleasedevelop a more functional system Bigger symbols an easier to see color scheme.
