Rene and Georgette Magritte

           A            |E  |
With their dog after the war

 |                D    |B
Returned to their hotel suite

                     |Amaj7 |  |
And they unlocked the door

F#m6               |E6/G#
Easily losing their evening clothes

    |F#m/A                     |B/A |
They danced by the light of the moon

      |E/G#         |C#m7
To the Penguins, the Moonglows

    Amaj9           |B9
The Orioles, and The Five Satins

   |E       G#m7/D#|C#m
The deep forbidden  music

E/B        |Amaj7
They'd been longing for

 |F#m6              |B9
Rene and Georgette Magritte

                        |E  |
With their dog after the war

Rene and Georgette Magritte

           A            |E  |
With their dog after the war

    |               D          |B
Were strolling down Christopher Street

                      |Amaj7      |
When they stopped in a men's store

    |F#m6                 |E6/G#  
With all of the mannequins dressed in the style

            |F#m/A                   |B/A |
That brought tears to their immigrant eyes

             |E/G#         |C#m7
Just like The Penguins, the Moonglows

    Amaj9           |B9
The Orioles, and The Five Satins

   |E    G#m7/D#  |C#m
The easy stream of laughter

E/B        |Amaj7
    Flowing through the air

 |F#m6              |B9
Rene and Georgette Magritte

                       |E     |  |
With their dog après la guerre

F#7    |B
Side by side

    |Amaj7 |G#m7 |
They fell  asleep

A6     |E/G#                   |
Decades gliding by like Indians

B#dim  |C#m7 |
Time is cheap

A6       |E/G#   |B7/F#    |E   |
When they wake up they will find

F#7      |B          F#6/A#
All their personal belongings

    |Amaj7 |G#m7  |
Have inter--twined

F#m6 |  |E      D          |B
Oh-----Rene and Georgette Magritte

           A            |E  |
With their dog after the war

    |E               D     |B
Were dining with the power élite

                        |Amaj7         |
And they looked in their bedroom drawer

   |F#m6
And what do you think

         |E6/G#
They have hidden away

      |F#m/A                |F#7/A# |
In the cabinet cold of their hearts?

   |G#m          |D#m
The Penguins, the Moonglows

   |E               |B
The Orioles, and The Five Satins

   |E       G#m7/D#|C#m7
For now and ever    after

E/B      |Amaj7     |
    As it was before

D9-5  |F#m/C#            |B
