The most melancholic song from 'life for rent'. Simple and truly emotional.
Capo 2nd fret
Em B7 (x2)
Em B7
Coming back from Paris on the train
Em B7
I really didn't care if the journey took all day
Em B7
Trying to turn the pages of my magazine
Em B7
while trying to keep a hold of your hand
Em B7
And ordering a coffee that I wouldn't ever drink
Em B7
just to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
Just to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
I didn't know it would be the last time
C B7
the last time I saw you
Em B7
At Waterloo we went our separate ways
Em B7
when I got in my cab I didn't turn and wave
Em B7
Didn't go to work just went to bed
Em B7
trying to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
Trying to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
I didn't know it would be the last time
C B7
the last time I saw you
Em B7 (x2)
Em Am
I phoned your office this afternoon
C B7
they said they hadn't heard anything from you
Em Am
It's been seven days without a word
C B7
I have to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
I have to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
I didn't know it would be the last time
C B7
the last time I saw you
Em B7
Going back to Paris on the train
Em B7
raining and without you it's not the same
Em B7
I have to do this journey one more time
Em B7
just to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
Just to keep you in Paris on my mind
Cmaj7 D7 G
I didn't know it would be the last time
C B7
the last time I saw you
Em B7
The last time I saw you (x3)
