Verse:
EEC#m7
The summer air was soft and warm
EA
The feeling right, the Paris night
EF#mF#m
Did its best to please us
BF#G#mF#
And strolling down the Elysee
BBE
We had a drink in each cafe
B7E
And you
EC#m7EA
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
EA6B
Smiled like Mona Lisa
F#m7F#m6
We had our chance
F#m6F#mBsus4B
It was a fine and true romance
Chorus:
BEG#mA
I can still recall our last summer
BEG#mA
I still see it all
BEG#7C#m
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
G#mA
Our last summer
B7Esus4
Memories that remain
Verse:
EEC#m7
We made our way along the river
EA
And we sat down in the grass
EF#mF#m
By the Eiffel tower
BF#G#mF#
I was so happy we had met
BBE
It was the age of no regret
B7E
Oh yes
EC#m7EA
Those crazy years, that was the time
EA6B
Of the flower-power
F#m7F#m6
But underneath we had a fear of flying
F#m6F#mBsus4B
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
F#m7F#m6
We took the chance
F#m6F#mBsus4B
Like we were dancing our last dance
Chorus:
BEG#mA
I can still recall our last summer
BEG#mA
I still see it all
BEG#7C#m
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
G#mA
Our last summer
B7Esus4
Walking hand in hand
EEC#m7
Paris restaurants our last summer
EA
Morning croissants
EF#mF#m
Living for the day, worries far away
BF#G#mF#
Our last summer
BBE
We could laugh and play
B7E
And now youʼre working in a bank
EC#m7EA
The family man, the football fan
EA6B
And your name is Harry
F#m7F#m6
How dull it seems
F#m6F#mBsus4B
Are you the hero of my dreams
Chorus:
BEG#mA
I can still recall our last summer
BEG#mA
I still see it all
BEG#7C#m
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
G#mA
Our last summer
B7Esus4
Memories that remain
BEG#mA
I can still recall our last summer
BEG#mA
I still see it all
BEG#7C#m
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
G#mA
Our last summer
B7Esus4
Walking hand in hand
EEC#m7
Paris restaurants our last summer
EA
Morning croissants
EF#mF#m
Living for the day, worries far away...
