The Kingston Trio is an American folk group that helped launch the folk revival of the 1960s and continued to thrive despite the emergence of rock and roll.
The Kingston Trio was formed in 1957 in the Palo Alto, California area by original lineup of Dave Guard (1934–1991), Bob Shane (1934–2020), and Nick Reynolds (1933–2008), who were just out of college. Greatly influenced by The Weavers, the calypso sounds of Harry Belafonte, and other semi-popular folk artists such as the Gateway Singers and the Tarriers

during the verses, play the same chords as the intro
A young man goes to Paris As every young man should There's something in the air of France That does a young man good
refrain:
GDGDG La la ...
GAm Raspberries, strawberries, the good wines we brew D Here's to the girls in the countryside CG The ones we drink them to
The Paris nights are warm and fair The summer winds are soft A young man finds the face of love In every field and loft CD7G In every field and loft
refrain
An old man returns to Paris As every old man must He finds the winter winds blow cold His dreams have turned to dust CD7Em His dreams have turned to dust CD7G His dreams have turned to dust
GDGDG La la la ... GAm Raspberries, strawberries, the good wines we brew D Here's to the girls in the countryside CG Whom we must bid adieu
