[Verse 1]
A           D                  A                   E                 A
Down on Bowery they lose their ball-eyes and their lip-mouths in the night
              D                        A                 E
And stumbling through the street, they say: "Sir, do you got a light?"
    A               D                     A                  E
And if you do, then you're my friend, and if you don't, then you're my foe
    A            D        A              E
And if you are a deity of any sort, then please don't go


[Chorus]
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E            A     A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas


[Verse 2]
    A             D                   A                  E
And down on Lexington they're wearing new shoes stuck to aging feet
    A                    D                 A             E
And close their eyes and open, and they'll recognize the aging street
    A               D                      A                   E
And think about how things were right when they were young and veins were tight
    A              D                  A                    E
And if you are the Ghost of Christmas Past, then won't you stay the night?


[Chorus]
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ooh-ooh-ooh
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E     D      A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pa-a-as

[Verse 3]
A               D                 A                  E
Down in Bronx-y Bronx the kids go sledding down snow-covered slopes
    A             D                A           E
And frozen noses, frozen toes, the frozen city starts to glow
    A                   D               A                  E
And yes, they know that it'll melt, and yes, they know New York will thaw
    A           D             A                E
But if you're a friend of any sort, then play along and catch a cold


[Chorus]
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ooh-ooh-ooh
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E     D      A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pa-a-as


[Bridge]
A            D            E            D
I love Paris in the rain, I love Paris in the rain
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
A            D            E            D
I love Paris in the rain, I love Paris in the rain
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh

A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh


[Verse 4]
A             D                    A                 E
Down in Paris they walk fast, that is unless they're walking slow
    A             D               A              E
And in cafes they look away, that is unless they look right in
    A              D                A             E
And in the gardens I get lost, that is unless I'm getting found
    A              D                 A               E
And if you are the ghost of New York City, won't you stick around?


[Chorus]
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ooh-ooh-ooh
A            D              E            A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pas, ah-ah-ah
A            D              E     D      A
Ne me quitte pas, mon cher, ne me quitte pa-a-as


[Bridge]
A            D            E            D
I love Paris in the rain, I love Paris in the rain
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
A            D            E            D
I love Paris in the rain, I love Paris in the rain
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh

A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
A       D       E      D
I love, I love, in the rain, oh-oh-oh
