Trouble In Paris Chords

Standard (EADGBE)

DThere's a blue shadow moving through the D/C♯Moulin Rouge

BmAnd a man with a knife point Dpickin his teeth

GAn off duty cop sits with his Emback to the door

And Asomebody just took a piss in the sink

DThe cop's drinkin Pernod thinks he's dD/C♯rinkin absinthe

BmWith the girl who had loved him on the DRue St. Denis

GWhile somebody's slinkin smokin Emunder a light

And there's Atrouble in Paris Bmtonight

DNow Simone pulls the collar up tD/C♯ight to her throat

BmWhile the riverboats knock under the Dold Pont Neuf

GA rat makes a run for his Emhole in the wall

She Astops by a street light and lights a straight cigarette

DA Gitane on his knees starts to D/C♯howl like a dog

BmShe closes her purse and tries to Dpeer through the fog

GNothin seems wrong but Emsomethin ain't right

And there's Atrouble in Paris toniBmght

DNow the man cleanin his teeth well he D/C♯ain't satisfied

BmHe's hungry for somethin that he Djust can't define

GThe one by the sink is now Emsweeping the floor

And the Acop he ran short of dreams a long time before

DWhile under a street lamp there's troD/C♯uble it seems

BmFirst there's a struggle and Dthen there's a scream

GShe didn't know what hit her when he aEmsked for a light

And there's Atrouble in Paris Bmtonight

DSimone had been a town girl not fD/C♯ar north of Nantes

BmWho did it for money once then Dshe just couldn't stop

GHad a fight with her mother Emanother runaway teen

AWho had hotel love with a cop on the Rue St. Denis

BmAnd a man with a knife point Dpickin his teeth

GAn off duty cop sits with his Emback to the door

AAnd somebody just took a piss in the sink

DWhile somebody's standin out D/C♯cold in the rain

BmCould be all warm inside Ddrinking champagne

GBeing thin as a shadow smokin Emunder a light

And there's Atrouble in Paris tBmonight

GBein thin as a shadow smokin Emunder a light

And there's Atrouble in Paris Bmtonight
