- D D/C#
There's a blue shadow moving through the Moulin Rouge
Bm D And a man with a knife point pickin his teeth
G EmAn off duty cop sits with his back to the door
- A
And somebody just took a piss in the sink
D D/C# The cop's drinkin Pernod thinks he's drinkin absinthe
Bm DWith the girl who had loved him on the Rue St. Denis
- G Em
While somebody's slinkin smokin under a light
A Bm And there's trouble in Paris tonight
D D/C#Now Simone pulls the collar up tight to her throat
- Bm D
While the riverboats knock under the old Pont Neuf
G Em A rat makes a run for his hole in the wall
AShe stops by a street light and lights a straight cigarette
- D D/C#
A Gitane on his knees starts to howl like a dog
Bm D She closes her purse and tries to peer through the fog
G EmNothin seems wrong but somethin ain't right
- A Bm
And there's trouble in Paris tonight
D D/C# Now the man cleanin his teeth well he ain't satisfied
Bm DHe's hungry for somethin that he just can't define
- G Em
The one by the sink is now sweeping the floor
A And the cop he ran short of dreams a long time before
D D/C#While under a street lamp there's trouble it seems
- Bm D
First there's a struggle and then there's a scream
G Em She didn't know what hit her when he asked for a light
A BmAnd there's trouble in Paris tonight
- D D/C#
Simone had been a town girl not far north of Nantes
Bm D Who did it for money once then she just couldn't stop
G EmHad a fight with her mother another runaway teen
- A
Who had hotel love with a cop on the Rue St. Denis
D D/C# And a boy once abandoned by a cop and a whore
Bm DHas a knife in his hands he was a child of the war
- G Em
It was either Simone or cut out the lights
A Bm And there's trouble in Paris tonight
D D/C#There's a blue shadow moving through the Moulin Rouge
- Bm D
And a man with a knife point pickin his teeth
G Em An off duty cop sits with his back to the door
AAnd somebody just took a piss in the sink
- D D/C#
While somebody's standin out cold in the rain
Bm D Could be all warm inside drinking champagne
G EmBeing thin as a shadow smokin under a light
- A Bm
And there's trouble in Paris tonight
G Em Bein thin as a shadow smokin under a light
A BmAnd there's trouble in Paris tonight
