[Inro] Em B7 Em B7 Am D7 G C B7 Em [Verse 1]
Em                     B7
It's a rainy night in Paris,

Em                          B7
And the harbour lights are low.

Am                  D7      G
He must leave his love in Paris

C          B7       Em
Before the winter snow.
[Verse 2]
Em                      B7
On a lonely street in Paris,

Em                    B7
He held her close to say

Am             D7       G
" We'll meet again in Paris

                   C            B7           Em
  When there are flowers on the Champs-Elysees. "
[Bridge]
       Em                    Am
" How long " she said " How long,

       D                 G
  And will your love be strong?

    Em                   Am
  When you're across the sea,

             F            B7
  Will your love remember me ? "
[Verse 3]
Em                          B7
Then she gave him words to turn to

Em                           B7
When the winter nights were long.

       Am        D7          G
" Nous serons encore amoureux

    C         B7              Em
  Avec les couleurs du printemps. "
[Bridge]
     Em                     Am
" And then " she said " And then,

      D               G
  Our love will grow again. "

    Em                 Am
Ah, but in her eyes he sees

              F                      B7
Her words of love are only words to please.
[Verse 4]
Em                     B7
And now the lights of Paris

Em                 B7
Grow dim and fade away.

      Am           D7         G
And I know by the light of Paris

       C         B7    Em
I will never see her again.
