_ _ Marie, _ Marie Flore was [Dm] a small girl of ten whom I met in the south end [C] of _ _ _ _ _ _
France
_ _ Stepping _ _ out of a crowd was the daughter of [Dm]
someone with _ flowers for me
We were friends that [C] have _ _ last _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] She spoke no English but sat by my side in [F] the _ _ car _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [Gm] _
Pointing out places en route to the village [F] of _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
_ _ [Am] [Bm] Arles
[C] Marie, _ _ _ _ Marie _ Flore came [Dm] to table that night as I dined
In an ancient [C] _
hotel _ _ _ _ _
_ The _ _ _ room was all fitted with things from [Dm] the _ 17th century and they suited her [C] _ _
_ well _ _ _
She _ _ [G] _ [Gm]
would eat nothing but sat in her chair like [F] a queen _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] And laughed at my French but seemed always to know what [F] I'd _ _ mean
[G] _ _ _
_ _ [B] _ _ [C] Marie, _ _ _ _ Marie Flore [D] [E] came [Dm] to hear me that night when I sang for the people [C] of _ _ _ _ _ _
Arles
_ She stood _ _ back in the shadows of a ruined [Dm] arena
Her frame in my mind was never [C] to _ fall _ _ _ _
_ _ In [Gm] the rush that did follow I found she was holding [F] my _ _ _ _ _ _ _
hand
_ [Gm] And _ ushering me through an evening the elders [F] had _
_ _ _ [G] _ _ _
planned
[Bm] _ _ [C] Marie, _ _ _ _ Marie _ Flore I [Dm] will _ always remember your eyes, your smile [C] and your _ _ _ _ grace
_ The _ _ gold _ _ that flowed with your laughter [Dm] _
remains to enlighten the image I have of [C] your _ _ face _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F#] [Gm] For I've seen children with faces much wiser [F] than _ time _ _ _ _
_ _ _ And [Gm] you, my Marie, are most certainly one of [F] this _ kind
_ _ [G] _ _
_ _ _ [Bm] _ [C] Marie, _ _ _ _ Marie _ Flore all the [Dm]
odds say I'll see you again by plan or [C] by _ _ _ _ _ _
_ chance
But if _ not, be there when I'm dreaming [Dm] of rain over _ Paris or sun on the south [C] end of _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ France _
Marie, _ _ _ _ _ _ _ Marie, _ Marie Flore _ _ _
