Verse:
D#         D#            Cm7
The summer air was soft and warm
          D#              G#
The feeling right, the Paris night
D#          Fm       Fm
Did its best to please us
A#           F         Gm F
And strolling down the Elysee
A#      A#                D#
We had a drink in each cafe
A#7 D#
And you
D#         Cm7       D#            G#
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
D#      G#6    A#
Smiled like Mona Lisa
Fm7       Fm6
We had our chance
Fm6   Fm           A#sus4 A#
It was a fine and true romance

Chorus:
A#          D#     Gm      G#
I can still recall our last summer
A#             D# Gm G#
I still see it all
A#               D#   G7              Cm
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Gm     G#
Our last summer
A#7               D#sus4
Memories that remain

Verse:
D#         D#            Cm7
We made our way along the river
          D#             G#
And we sat down in the grass
D#        Fm  Fm
By the Eiffel tower
A#           F     Gm F
I was so happy we had met
A#      A#              D#
It was the age of no regret
A#7 D#
Oh yes
D#         Cm7       D#        G#
Those crazy years, that was the time
D#      G#6    A#
Of the flower-power
Fm7       Fm6
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Fm6   Fm           A#sus4 A#
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
Fm7       Fm6
We took the chance
Fm6   Fm           A#sus4 A#
Like we were dancing our last dance

Chorus:
A#          D#     Gm      G#
I can still recall our last summer
A#          D#  Gm  G#
I still see it all
A#               D#   G7              Cm
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Gm     G#
Our last summer
A#7               D#sus4
Walking hand in hand

D#         D#            Cm7
Paris restaurants our last summer
          D#   G#
Morning croissants
D#        Fm  Fm
Living for the day, worries far away
A#         F Gm F
Our last summer
A#      A#          D#
We could laugh and play
A#7 D#
And now youʼre working in a bank
D#         Cm7       D#     G#
The family man, the football fan
D#      G#6    A#
And your name is Harry
Fm7       Fm6
How dull it seems
Fm6   Fm           A#sus4 A#
Are you the hero of my dreams

Chorus:
A#          D#     Gm      G#
I can still recall our last summer
A#             D# Gm G#
I still see it all
A#               D#   G7              Cm
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Gm     G#
Our last summer
A#7               D#sus4
Memories that remain

A#          D#     Gm      G#
I can still recall our last summer
A#          D#  Gm  G#
I still see it all
A#               D#   G7              Cm
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Gm     G#
Our last summer
A#7               D#sus4
Walking hand in hand
