[F#m]
Summer evening [B] on the Champs-Élysées,
The secret rendezvous [F#m] they planned for days.
I see your faces [B] in a crowded café,
The sound of laughter [F#m] as the music plays.
[C#] [F#m]
[Bm]
[F#m]
The floor to the students, [Bm] the university,
Louise Marie [F#m] was just a world away.
He recalled the night they [Bm] met, just one minute,
The words of music [F#m] she turned away.
[E] I'll meet you [F#m] at midnight,
[E] under the [F#m] moonlight,
[E] I'll meet you [F#m] at midnight,
Oh, but Jean-Claude and Louise [Bm] Marie will never be.
[F#m]
She'd [Bm] recollect a thousand faces,
A child of [F#m] passing like a thousand years.
Midnight was [Bm] turning into empty spaces,
The sound of [F#m] laughter disappeared.
[E] I'll meet [F#m] you at midnight,
[E] under the [F#m] moonlight,
[Am] [E] I'll meet [F#m] you at midnight,
Oh, but Jean-Claude and Louise Marie [Bm] will never be.
[A] [F#]
[F#m]
[C#] Summer [D] morning on the Champs-Élysées,
[G#] The empty [F#m] tables, the street café,
The sunlight melting through [Bm] an open doorway.
Jean-Claude has left [F#m] to face another day.
[E] I'll meet you [F#m] at midnight,
[E] under the [F#m] moonlight,
[E] I'll meet you [F#m] at midnight,
[E] I'll meet you [A] at midnight, [E] under the [F#m] moonlight,
[C] [E] I'll meet [F#m] you at midnight,
Oh, but Jean-Claude and Louise [Bm] Marie will never be.
