Tonality
Verse:
DDBm7
The summer air was soft and warm
DG
The feeling right, the Paris night
DEmEm
Did its best to please us
AEF#mE
And strolling down the Elysee
AAD
We had a drink in each cafe
A7D
And you
DBm7DG
You talked of politics, philosophy and I
DG6A
Smiled like Mona Lisa
Em7Em6
We had our chance
Em6EmAsus4A
It was a fine and true romance
Chorus:
ADF#mG
I can still recall our last summer
ADF#mG
I still see it all
ADF#7Bm
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
F#mG
Our last summer
A7Dsus4
Memories that remain
Verse:
DDBm7
We made our way along the river
DG
And we sat down in the grass
DEmEm
By the Eiffel tower
AEF#mE
I was so happy we had met
AAD
It was the age of no regret
A7D
Oh yes
DBm7DG
Those crazy years, that was the time
DG6A
Of the flower-power
Em7Em6
But underneath we had a fear of flying
Em6EmAsus4A
Of getting old, a fear of slowly dying
Em7Em6
We took the chance
Em6EmAsus4A
Like we were dancing our last dance
Chorus:
ADF#mG
I can still recall our last summer
ADF#mG
I still see it all
ADF#7Bm
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
F#mG
Our last summer
A7Dsus4
Walking hand in hand
DDBm7
Paris restaurants our last summer
DG
Morning croissants
DEmEm
Living for the day, worries far away
AEF#mE
Our last summer
AAD
We could laugh and play
A7D
And now youʼre working in a bank
DBm7DG
The family man, the football fan
DG6A
And your name is Harry
Em7Em6
How dull it seems
Em6EmAsus4A
Are you the hero of my dreams
Chorus:
ADF#mG
I can still recall our last summer
ADF#mG
I still see it all
ADF#7Bm
Walks along the Seine, laughing in the rain
F#mG
Our last summer
A7Dsus4
Memories that remain
ADF#mG
I can still recall our last summer
ADF#mG
I still see it all
ADF#7Bm
In the tourist jam, round the Notre Dame
F#mG
Our last summer
A7Dsus4
Walking hand in hand
DDBm7
Paris restaurants our last summer
DG
Morning croissants
DEmEm
Living for the day, worries far away...
