Eric Andersen   Trouble In Paris  by Eric Andersen

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

    A

And somebody just took a piss in the sink

D                                     D/C#

The cop's drinkin Pernod thinks he's drinkin absinthe

Bm                                     D

With 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

    A

She 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                      Em

Nothin 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                               D

He'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                Bm

And 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                           Em

Had 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                                D

Has 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

A

And 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                             Em

Being 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                Bm

And there's trouble in Paris tonight
