To deep and deeper blue

We've got an hour or two

  B                 Em  D  A9  Csus2
Before it's time to go

Let's go see a movie show

With the trees and birds and little girls

Who play upon poor Jean-Claude's nerves

Is to become eternal and to die"

Heaven knows the reason why...

When the lights go out all over Europe

Am                 D
I forget about old Hollywood

I forget about old MGM

And Warners went out way back

           Em                C
When those lights go out all over Europe

A                  C
I forget about old Hollywood

'Cos Doris Day could never make me cheer up

F#                  B                   A
Quite the way those French girls always could
