Dm
I'm a legionnaire,
A
Camel in disrepair
G
Hoping for a frigidaire
A
to come passing by.
Dm
I am on reprieve,
A
lacking my joie de vive,
G
missing my gay Paris,
A
in this desert dry .
CHORUS
(still palm muting A, but normal strumming when you get to Dm)
Dm
If only summer rain would fall
A
On the houses and the boulevards
G A (palm mute after first couple strums)
and the sidewalk bagatelles it's like a dream
Dm (strum normal again)
with the roar of cars
A
and the lulling of the cafe bars,
G A
the sweetly sleeping sweeping of the Seine.
Dm
Lord I don't know if I'll ever be back again.
