Verse:
C#C#A#m7
The summer air was soft and warm
C#F#
The feeling right, the Paris night
C#D#mD#m
Did its best to please us
G#D#FmD#
And strolling down the Elysee
G#G#C#
We had a drink in each cafe
G#7C#
And you
C#A#m7C#F#
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
C#F#6G#
Smiled like Mona Lisa
D#m7D#m6
We had our chance
D#m6D#mG#sus4G#
It was a fine and true romance
Chorus:
G#C#FmF#
I can still recall our last summer
G#C#FmF#
I still see it all
G#C#F7A#m
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
FmF#
Our last summer
G#7C#sus4
Memories that remain
Verse:
C#C#A#m7
We made our way along the river
C#F#
And we sat down in the grass
C#D#mD#m
By the Eiffel tower
G#D#FmD#
I was so happy we had met
G#G#C#
It was the age of no regret
G#7C#
Oh yes
C#A#m7C#F#
Those crazy years, that was the time
C#F#6G#
Of the flower-power
D#m7D#m6
But underneath we had a fear of flying
D#m6D#mG#sus4G#
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
D#m7D#m6
We took the chance
D#m6D#mG#sus4G#
Like we were dancing our last dance
Chorus:
G#C#FmF#
I can still recall our last summer
G#C#FmF#
I still see it all
G#C#F7A#m
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
FmF#
Our last summer
G#7C#sus4
Walking hand in hand
C#C#A#m7
Paris restaurants our last summer
C#F#
Morning croissants
C#D#mD#m
Living for the day, worries far away
G#D#FmD#
Our last summer
G#G#C#
We could laugh and play
G#7C#
And now youʼre working in a bank
C#A#m7C#F#
The family man, the football fan
C#F#6G#
And your name is Harry
D#m7D#m6
How dull it seems
D#m6D#mG#sus4G#
Are you the hero of my dreams
Chorus:
G#C#FmF#
I can still recall our last summer
G#C#FmF#
I still see it all
G#C#F7A#m
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
FmF#
Our last summer
G#7C#sus4
Memories that remain
G#C#FmF#
I can still recall our last summer
G#C#FmF#
I still see it all
G#C#F7A#m
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
FmF#
Our last summer
G#7C#sus4
Walking hand in hand
C#C#A#m7
Paris restaurants our last summer
C#F#
Morning croissants
C#D#mD#m
Living for the day, worries far away...
