Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][Em][Dm]
[G][F][Em][G]
[C][C]

[Verse 1]
You [C]talk like Marlene [Em]Dietrich
And you [Dm]dance like Zizi Jean[G]maire
Your [C]clothes are all made by [Em]Balmain
And there's [Dm]diamonds and pearls
in your [G]hair, yes, there [F]are[Em][G]

[Verse 2]
You [C]live in a fancy [Em]apartment
Off the [Dm]Boulevard St. Mi[G]chel
Where you [C]keep your Rolling Stones [Em]records
And a [Dm]friend
of Sacha Dis[G]tel, yes, you [F]do[Em][G]

[Chorus 1]
But [C]where do you go to, my [Em]lovely
[Dm]When you're alone in your [G]bed?
[C]Tell me the thoughts that sur[Em]round you
I [Dm]want to look inside
your [G]head, yes, I [F]do[Em][G]

[Verse 3]
I've [C]seen all your qualifi[Em]cations
You [Dm]got from the Sor[G]bonne
And the [C]painting you stole from [Em]Picasso
Your [Dm]loveliness
goes on and [G]on, yes, it [F]does[Em][G]

[Verse 4]
When you [C]go on your summer [Em]vacation
You [Dm]go to Juan-les-P[G]ins
With your [C]carefully designed topless [Em]swimsuit
You [Dm]get an even sunt[G]an
on your [F]back, and on your [Em]legs[G]

[Verse 5]
And when the [C]snow falls
you're found in St. [Em]Moritz
With the [Dm]others of the jet [G]set
And you [C]sip your Napoleon [Em]brandy
But you [Dm]never
get your lips [G]wet, no, you [F]don't[Em][G]

[Chorus 2]
But [C]where do you go to, my [Em]lovely
[Dm]When you're alone in your [G]bed?
Won't you [C]tell me the thoughts
that sur[Em]round you
I [Dm]want to look inside
your [G]head, yes, I [F]do[Em][G]

[Verse 6]
Your [C]name it is heard in high [Em]places
You [Dm]know the Aga [G]Khan
He [C]sent you a race horse for [Em]Christmas
And you [Dm]keep it
just for [G]fun, for a [F]laugh, ha ha ha [Em]ha[G]

[Verse 7]
They [C]say that when you get [Em]married
It'll [Dm]be to a milliona[G]ire
But they [C]don't realize where you [Em]came from
And I [Dm]wonder
if they really [G]care, or give a [F]damn[Em][G]

[Chorus 3]
[C]Where do you go to, my [Em]lovely
[Dm]When you're alone in your [G]bed?
[C]Tell me the thoughts that sur[Em]round you
I [Dm]want to look inside
your [G]head, yes, I [F]do[Em][G]

[Verse 8]
I re[C]member the back streets of [Em]Naples
Two [Dm]children begging in [G]rags
Both [C]touched with a burning am[Em]bition
To [Dm]shake off
their lowly-born [G]tags, they [F]tried[Em][G]

[Verse 9]
So [C]look into my face, Marie-[Em]Claire
And re[Dm]member just who you [G]are
Then [C]go and forget me for[Em]ever
But I [Dm]know you still bear the [G]scar,
deep in[F]side, yes, you [Em]do[G]

[Chorus 4]
I [C]know where you go to, my [Em]lovely
[Dm]When you're alone in your [G]bed
[C]I know the thoughts that surr[Em]ound you
'Cause [Dm]I can look in[G]side your he[C]ad

[Outro 1]
