trouble in paris Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]The[A]re'[D]s a blue shadow
moving through the [A]moulin rouge
And a [Bm]man with a knife point
pick[A]ing his [D]teeth
[G]Off -duty cop sits with his [Em]back to the door
And [Asus4]some body just took
[A]a piss in the sink
[D]The cop's drinkin'
Pano thinks he's [A]drinkin' absinthe
With the [Bm]girl who loved him on
the [D]hoose underneath
While [G]somebody's slinkin'
smokin' [Em]under a light
And there's [A]trouble in
[Asus4]Par is tonight[Bm]
[D]Simone pulls the collar up
tight to her [A]throat
While the [Bm]riverboats knock
under the [A]old [D]ponder
A [G]rat makes a run for his [Em]hole in the wall
She [A]stops by a street [Asus4]light and
lights a [A]straight cigarette
[D]She's torn on his knees,
starts to [A]howl like a dog
[Bm]She closes the purse and tries
to peer [A]through the fog
[D]Noth[G]ing seems wrong,
but [Em]something ain't right
There's [A]trouble in
Paris tonight
[Bm]Now the man [D]cleaning his teeth,
well, [A]he ain't satisfied
[Bm]He's hungry for something
that he just can't [A]define
The [G]one by the sink is now
sweep[Em]ing the floor
And the [A]cop he ran short
of dreams a long time before
Well [D]under a street lamp
there's [A]trouble it seems
[Bm]First there's a struggle and
then there's [A]a scream
[Bm]She [G]didn't know what hit her
when he [Em]asked for a light
Now there's [A]trouble in
Paris [D]tonight
[Bm]Now
[D]Simone had been a town girl,
[A]not far north of
Nant
Who [Bm]did it for money once,
and then she [A]just couldn't stop
[D]Had a [G]fight with her mother,
another [Em]runaway teen
Who had [A]hotel love with a cop on the rue
Saint -Denis
And a [D]boy once abandoned
by a [A]cop and a whore
Has a [Bm]knife in his hands,
he was a [A]child of the [D]war
[A]It was [G]either
Simone or [Em]cut out the lights
And there's [A]trouble in
Paris tonight
[Bm]There's a blue[D] shadow movin'
through the [A]moolah roof
And a [Bm]man with a knife point picki[A]n'
his teeth
[D]Off [G]-duty cop sits with
[Em]his back to the door
And [A]somebody just took
a piss in the sink
Some[D]body standing out [A]cold in the rain
[Bm]Could be all warm inside
drink[A]ing cham[Asus4]pagne
Be[Bm]ing [G]thin as a shadow
smoking un[Em]der a light
And there's [A]trouble in
Paris [Bm]tonight
Being [G]thin as a shadow
smoking un[Em]der a light
And there's [A]trouble in
Paris [Bm]tonight
