C           F                  C                   G                 C
Down on Bowery they lose their ball-eyes and their lip-mouths in the night

              F                        C                 G
And stumbling through the street, they say: "Sir, do you got a light?"

    C               F                     C                  G
And if you do, then you're my friend, and if you don't, then you're my foe

    C            F        C              G
And if you are a deity of any sort, then please don't go
[Chorus]
C            F              G            C
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas
[Verse 2]
    C             F                   C                  G
And down on Lexington they're wearing new shoes stuck to aging feet

    C                    F            C             G
And close their eyes and open and not recognize the aging street

    C               F                      C                   G
And think about how things were right when they were young and veins were tight

    C              F                  C                    G
And if you are the Ghost of Christmas Past, then won't you stay the night?
[Chorus]
C            F              G            C
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah

C            F              G            C
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah

C            F              G     F      C
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pa-a-as

C               F                 C                  G
Down in Bronx-y Bronx the kids go sledding down snow-covered slopes

    C             F                C           G
And frozen noses, frozen toes, the frozen city starts to glow

    C                   F               C                  G
And yes, they know that it'll melt, and yes, they know New York will thaw

    C           F             C                G
But if you're a friend of any sort, then play along and catch a cold
[Chorus]
C            F              G            C
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ooh-ooh-ooh

Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah

C            F              G     F      C
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pa-a-as

I love Paris in the rain, I love Paris in the rain
