Paris Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G]

[Verse 1]
[C]The train pulled into Paris
Like a [Am]rocket to the moon.
[C]The station's like a circus

[Verse 2]
Every [Am]face is a cartoon.
[C]And [D]everyone's
stoned on pride
And drunk [Am]on cheap champ[C]agne.

[Verse 3]
[D]Tonight this joie de vivre
Sure don't [Am]live up to its name.
Now [G]all I can say is

[Verse 4]
I'd [D]give this [Bbdim]world to you[Bm]
Every [C]rock and [G]every stone
Every [D]masterpiece [Em]in Rome

[Verse 5]
[D]And if y[A]ou'd ask [Bbdim]me to[Bm]
[C]I'd steal the Mona [G]Lisa
Tear [F#m]it up [D]in little [Em]pieces

[Verse 6]
And [A]lay them [Em]at yo[A]ur feet[Em]
For [A]all [Em]the world to [A]see.
But to[D]night I can't give [G]you
[D]Paris.

[Interlude 1]

[C]

[Verse 7]
Aristicats are everywhere [Am]And the
air is as thick as thieves.
[C]She'd like nothing better than to

[Verse 8]
[Am]Steal the breath from me.
[D]And the tower's lights ain't shinin'
As [Am]it hangs its head in shame

[Verse 9]
[D]At the sight of American blood
On the [Am]streets of St. Germain
Washin' [C]up into [G]the Seine

[Verse 10]
And I'd [D]give this [Bbdim]world to you[Bm][C]
[G][D][Em][G][D][A][Bbdim][Bm]
I'd [D]steal [G]the[D][Em][A][Em][A]
[Em][A][Em][A][D][G]
[D][G][D]
[G][C][G]
[Em]crow[D]n[Bbdim][F#][Bm][D]
[G]and kingdom
[D]From the Queen [Em]of En[G]gland

[Verse 11]
[D]An d if [A]you'd [Bbdim]ask me to[Bm]
I'd take [Am]this city [D]in my [G]hands
Break it [D]down to grains [Em]of sand

[Verse 12]
[A]And lay them at [Em]your feet[A][Em]
[A]For all [Em]the world [A]to see.
But to[D]night I can't [A]give [G]you Paris.
