He met her in a french cafe
Eb F GmShe slipped in sideways like a cat
Eb F GmSidelong glances, what a wary little stray
She sticks in his mind like that
Bb GmSaying 'avez vous un alumette'
Cm EbWith her lips wrapped around a cigarette
Yvette in English saying please have this
Eb F F# G# GmLittle bit of instant bliss.
Eb F GmHe's struggling with a foreign tongue
Reaching for words and drawing blanks
Eb F GmA loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb
Eb F BbIn a bistro on the left bank
If I was a painter Picasso said
Cm EbI'd paint this girl from toe to head
Eb F GmYvette in English, saying please have this
Little bit of instant bliss
Eb F GmBurgundy nocturne tips and spills
Eb F GmThey move along nicely in the spreading stain
New chills, new thrills
GmFor the old uphill battle
Eb F BbHow did he wind up here again
Walking and talking touched and scared
Cm EbUninsulated wires bare
Eb F GmYvette in English saying 'please have this
Little bit of instant bliss
Eb F GmWhat blew her like a leaf his way
Eb F GmUp in the air and down to earth
First she flusters, then she frays
Eb F BbSo quick to question her own worth
Bb GmHer cigarette burns her finger tips
It falls like fireworks, she curses it
Eb F GmSweetly in English she says 'please have this
Eb F F# G# GmLittle bit of instant bliss
He sees her turn and walk away
Eb F GmSkittering like a cat on a stone
Eb F GmHer high heels clicking, what a wary little stray
She leaves him by the Seine alone.
Bb GmWith black water and amber lights
Cm EbAnd the bony bridge between left and right
Yvette in English, saying 'please have this
Eb F F# G# GmLittle bit of instant bliss
