Bb What do I hear, what do I hear? Gm Chit-chat, and clinking glass Ab Cheap talk, a lady's laugh F After hours Bb What do I see, what do I see? Gm Some sunken hideaway Ab Where people go to play F After hours Eb There I'll spend the night Bb Meeting fancy things Gm At bistros and old haunts
Trying very hard to
F sin Bb Then it is day end in a way Gm The pattern's much the same Ab In-spots, a matinee F Every day Bb Blend with the crowd, blend with the loud Gm Hypnotic ebb and flow Ab Until the day goes slowly F Into night Eb See the same old crowd Bb At bistros and old haunts Gm 'Til the lights grow dim,
The not-so-subtle hint to be
F
goneChorus:
Db
Thank God it's not ChristmasWhen there is
Eb only you, and nothing else to do Db Thank God it's not Christmas
Where there's just
Eb you to do. The rest is closed to public F view Bb Caroling kids, caroling kids Gm A trifle premature, Ab in tones so rich and pure and F crystalline Bb Call for the day, the popular day Gm It's fast approaching now Ab But will the mood allow F One dissent Eb If this were the Seine Bb We'd be very suave Gm But it's just the rain washing down the F boulevard
[Chorus]
Bb Popular days, the popular ways Gm Are for the chosen few Ab Not meant for me and you F Obviously Bb Popular nights, poplar rites Gm Great things to say and do Ab Aren't said or done by you F Obviously Eb If this were Seine Bb We'd be very suave Gm But it's just the rain washing down the F boulevard
