John Cale – Paris 1919 (Ukulele)

C               Em        Am      G
She makes me so unsure of myself

C              Em             Am            G
Standing there but never ever talking sense

F                  C
Just a visitor you see

        F             C
So much wanting to be seen

      F           C         Dm               G
She'd open up the doors and vaguely carry us away

         C         Em       Am        G
It's the customary thing to say or do

     C            Em               Am     G
To a disappointed proud man in his grief

       F                C
And on Fridays she'd be there

       F              C
But on Mondays not at all

     F        C                  Dm               G
Just casually appearing from the clock across the hall

         C           Em          Am       G
You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

         C           Em          Am       G
You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

        F               C
I'm the church and I've come

        F               C
To claim you with my iron drum

D#       D              C
La la la la la la la la la la

    C                Em        Am        G
The Continent's just fallen in disgrace

        C               Em            Am           G
William William William Rogers put it in its place

          F              C
Blood and tears from old Japan

       F             C       F
Caravans and lots of jam and maids of honor

C              Dm              G
Singing crying singing tediously

         C           Em          Am       G
You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

         C           Em          Am       G
You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

        F               C
I'm the bishop and I've come

        F               C
To claim you with my iron drum

D#       D              C
La la la la la la la la la la

C          Em              Am   G
Efficiency efficiency they say

       C                 Em               Am     G
Get to know the date and tell the time of day

       F            C
As the crowds begin complaining

        F             C
How the Beaujolais is raining

        F        C               Dm         G
Down on darkened meetings on the Champs Elysées

         C           Em          Am       G
You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

         C           Em          Am       G
You're a ghost la la la la la la la la la

        F               C
I'm the church and I've come

To claim you with my iron drum
