Intro (usually a mandolin)
C � � � � � �F � � � � � �C (x2)
C
The weather is clearing, birds are appearing,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
and I'm only three miles from Dover,
C
to the wind and the ocean, I'm throwing caution,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �C
oh, I can't wait to get back over.
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
After two 'Beaujolais' everybody is laughing,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � ��C
it's better than smoking and its two times as healthy,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � C
my pockets are empty but I'm feeling wealthy,
Dm � � � F � � � � � � � � �
la, la la la la la, la la ...
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I've got to get back to the Seine City,
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I've got to get back where the girls are so pretty,
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I've got to get back to the Seine City,
Dm � � � � �F � � � � � � C
I've got to get back to those eyes.
C
The last time I was there, she wore her gold hair,
F � � � � � � � � � � �C
tied at the back in a pigtail,
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �
I wonder if she still cares, or even if she's still there,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
oh, I don't want to go into details.
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
Well, the street that she lived in was called Rue Moutard
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
I hope I can find it without asking directions,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
I'm so glad I made my own French connection
Dm. � � � �F. � � ��C
la, la la la la la, la la ...
C � � � � � � � � � � F
I'd like to live in the Seine City,
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I'd like to live where the girls are so pretty,
C � � � � � � � � � � �F
I'd like to live in the Seine City,
Dm. � � � � � � F � � � � � � C
I've got to get back to those eyes.
Repeat intro twice
F � � � � � � � � � � � � � � C
After two 'Beaujolais' everybody is laughing,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � ��C
it's better than smoking and its two times as healthy,
F � � � � � � � � � � � � C
my pockets are empty but I'm feeling wealthy,
Dm � � � F � � � � � � � � �
la, la la la la la, la la ...
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I've got to get back to the Seine City,
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I've got to get back where the girls are so pretty,
C � � � � � � � � � � � � � � �F
I've got to get back to the Seine City,

I've got to get back to those eyes.
Play intro twice and end
