Verse:
C         C            Am7
The summer air was soft and warm
          C              F
The feeling right, the Paris night
C          Dm       Dm
Did its best to please us
G           D         Em D
And strolling down the Elysee
G      G                C
We had a drink in each cafe
G7 C
And you
C         Am7       C            F
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
C      F6    G
Smiled like Mona Lisa
Dm7       Dm6
We had our chance
Dm6   Dm           Gsus4 G
It was a fine and true romance

Chorus:
G          C     Em      F
I can still recall our last summer
G             C Em F
I still see it all
G               C   E7              Am
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Em     F
Our last summer
G7               Csus4
Memories that remain

Verse:
C         C            Am7
We made our way along the river
          C             F
And we sat down in the grass
C        Dm  Dm
By the Eiffel tower
G           D     Em D
I was so happy we had met
G      G              C
It was the age of no regret
G7 C
Oh yes
C         Am7       C        F
Those crazy years, that was the time
C      F6    G
Of the flower-power
Dm7       Dm6
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Dm6   Dm           Gsus4 G
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
Dm7       Dm6
We took the chance
Dm6   Dm           Gsus4 G
Like we were dancing our last dance

Chorus:
G          C     Em      F
I can still recall our last summer
G          C  Em  F
I still see it all
G               C   E7              Am
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Em     F
Our last summer
G7               Csus4
Walking hand in hand

C         C            Am7
Paris restaurants our last summer
          C   F
Morning croissants
C        Dm  Dm
Living for the day, worries far away
G         D Em D
Our last summer
G      G          C
We could laugh and play
G7 C
And now youʼre working in a bank
C         Am7       C     F
The family man, the football fan
C      F6    G
And your name is Harry
Dm7       Dm6
How dull it seems
Dm6   Dm           Gsus4 G
Are you the hero of my dreams

Chorus:
G          C     Em      F
I can still recall our last summer
G             C Em F
I still see it all
G               C   E7              Am
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
Em     F
Our last summer
G7               Csus4
Memories that remain

G          C     Em      F
I can still recall our last summer
G          C  Em  F
I still see it all
G               C   E7              Am
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
Em     F
Our last summer
G7               Csus4
Walking hand in hand

C         C            Am7
Paris restaurants our last summer
          C   F
Morning croissants
C        Dm  Dm
Living for the day, worries far away...
