Lời & hợp âm

[Intro 1]
[D][G][D][G][D][G][D]
[G]

[Verse 1]
[Em]We were drun[G]k fools in P[D]aris,
[G]stumbling [Em]on the sidewalk
That [G]run[D]s along the Seine,
[G]and on [Em]the Cathedral
All [G]the [D]gargoyles watched us laughing,
[G][C]
"Two [G]stupid Americ[Bm]ans..."

[Verse 2]
[Bm][G]
We were [Em]at the mercy of
this [G]passionate [D]waiter
Who [G]pulled the [Em]corks
at [D]the Osterasis Cafe
[G]He kept serving [Em]us wine
we hadn't [D]ordered
Then he blamed us for the weather,
[G][C][G][Bm]

[Verse 3]
[D]
[G]It was cold [D]and rainy -
[C]But we [G]raised a glass up to him [Bm]anyway
[D]

[Verse 4]
[D]We [Asus4]did Paris in a day[D],
What would Marie Antionette say?
We made a [Asus4]vow on the[D]
Champs Elysees
That nothing [Em]would [G]com[D]e

[Interlude 1]
between us
[Em][G][D][Em]

[Verse 5]
The Mona [G]Lisa, I said,
"She [D]smiles just like she knows me"
[Em]You said, "She's a woman
[G]with nothing [D]to lose -
She [Em]gathers a crowd [G]around her,
then she
[D]Flirts with perfect strangers, but she'll
[C]Never take a lover in the [G]Louvre [Bm]-
She will [C]never take a lover in
the [D]Louvre..."
[Bm][D]

[Verse 6]
We did Paris in a Day
What would Quasimodo say?
Would he stand on top of Notre Dame

[Verse 7]
And throw down tourists to us?
[D]A thousand stairs up the Pompadou
We were gasping at the view
If we tried for Jim Morrison's
gravesite too
We'd probably have
to find a tour [Em]bus

[Verse 8]
And [Em]man, [G]how[D] do we find
a tour [Em]bus
Without find[G]ing another day
[D]

[Verse 9]
[Em]We took the M acro[G]ss the Seine
And [D]headed for the Eiffel tower
An[Em]d there the street merch[G]ants
[D]Called us out by name

[Verse 10]
[Em]"Cool shades here [G]for the Americans"
[D]They said in their finest hipster English
And then [C]they told us,
"Every Yankee looks [Bm]the same"
I said, "Is it [C]the camera case,

[Verse 11]
or our American grace?"
[Bm]They said,
"You all just look the same..."
[G]We

[Verse 12]
[D]lit a c[G]andle for a ghost in
[D]the Notre Dame Cathedral
We [G]got lost on the Left Bank looking
[D]for a place in which to stay
When we [G]told the waiter [D]there what we [G]had done,
[D]he said,
"Only an American [C]would
attempt Paris in a [Bm]day...
[C]Only an Americ[D]an would
do [Bm]Paris in a day..."
[D]

[Verse 13]
We did Paris in a day
What would Marcel Marceau say?
We put up our feet at the Fountain Cafe
And toasted the bond between us

[Verse 14]
We drank [D]sherry with an Englishman
We caught up like long lost friends
Under the Arc we watched the sunset end
And laughed at the miles that had
passed beneath us

[Verse 15]
[D]The miles that passed beneath us
You said, "That's kilometres, baby"

[Verse 16]
But I wouldn't let it come between us
[D]Nothing will come between us
Nothing will come between us...
