The Kingston Trio – The Seine (Guitar)

    C               Am7       Dm7              G7
One night along the river at St. Germain de Pre,

  C              Am7         Dm7              G7
I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk cafe.

   C                Am7         Dm7               G7
We walked along the river, the shadows passing by

       C             Am7         Dm7             G7      C
but we only saw each other, the shining water and the sky.

    Am7   Dm7       G7
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh

    C          Am7     Dm7           G7
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again

C        Am7     Dm7         G7
meet her there, greet her there

       C       G7           C       G7
on the moonlit banks of the Seine?

         C                Am7         Dm7                 G7
Standing there across the river, mid sound of horn and tram,

   C             Am7          Dm7               G7
in all her quiet beauty, the cathedral Notre Dame,

    C              Am7          Dm7             G7
And as we passed beside her, I said a little prayer

     C                   Am7    Dm7             G7       C
that when this dream was over, I'd awake and find you there.

    Am7   Dm7       G7
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh

   C                Am7           Dm7               G7
We walked along the river, 'till dawn was coming nigh.

  C                Am7       Dm7                  G7
Beneath the Eiffel Tower we said our last good-bye.

      C                Am7         Dm7               G7
There on that splendid morning, I left you all in tears

        C              Am7        Dm7               G7          C
and the beauty of that hour will shine within me through the years

    Am7   Dm7       G7
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh

    C          Am7     Dm7            G7
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again

         C        G7           C  
(SLOWLY) meet her there on the Seine?
