F#m Bm
Jeanne-Claude's student at the University
F#m
Louise-Marie is just a world away
F#m Bm
You recall the night they met was warm with laughter
F#m
The words and music as she turned away.
[Refrain]
E F#m
I'll meet you at midnight
E F#m
Under the moonlight
E F#m
I'll meet you at midnight
F#m Bm
Oh, but Jeanne-Claude, Louise-Marie will never be
(chords continue with same progression)
Each cigarette will light a thousand faces
The shade is passing like a thousand years
Midnight was turning into empty spaces
The sound of laughter'd disappeared
[Refrain]
A summer morning on Les Champs Elyses
The entertainment in the street cafe
The sunlight melting through an open doorway
Jeanne-Claude has left some other day...
