David Crosby Yvette In English written by Joni Mitchell David Crosby
EbFGm He met her in a french cafe EbFGm She slipped in sideways like a cat EbFGm Sidelong glances, what a wary little stray EbFBb She sticks in his mind like that BbGm Saying 'avez vous un alumette' CmEb With her lips wrapped around a cigarette EbFGm Yvette in English saying please have this EbFGbAbGm Little bit of instant bliss. EbFGm He's struggling with a foreign tongue EbFGm Reaching for words and drawing blanks EbFGm A loud mouth is stricken deaf and dumb EbFBb In a bistro on the left bank BbGm If I was a painter Picasso said CmEb I'd paint this girl from toe to head EbFGm Yvette in English, saying please have this EbFGbAbGm Little bit of instant bliss EbFGm Burgundy nocturne tips and spills EbFGm They move along nicely in the spreading stain EbF New chills, new thrills Gm For the old uphill battle EbFBb How did he wind up here again BbGm Walking and talking touched and scared CmEb Uninsulated wires bare EbFGm Yvette in English saying 'please have this EbFGbAbGm Little bit of instant bliss EbFGm What blew her like a leaf his way EbFGm Up in the air and down to earth EbFGm First she flusters, then she frays EbFBb So quick to question her own worth BbGm Her cigarette burns her finger tips CmEb It falls like fireworks, she curses it EbFGm Sweetly in English she says 'please have this EbFGbAbGm Little bit of instant bliss EbFGm He sees her turn and walk away EbFGm Skittering like a cat on a stone EbFGm Her high heels clicking, what a wary little stray EbFBb She leaves him by the Seine alone. BbGm With black water and amber lights CmEb And the bony bridge between left and right EbFGm Yvette in English, saying 'please have this EbFGbAbGm Little bit of instant bliss
