F#m                      Bm
A summer evening on the Champs-Élysées
Bm                        F#m
A secret rendezvous they planned for days
F#m                  Bm
A sea of faces in a crowded cafe
Bm                          F#m
The sound of laughter as the music plays

Jean-Claude was a student at the University
Louise-Marie is just a world away
He recalled the night they met was warm with
laughter
The words were music as she turned away

Chorus:
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
But Jeanne-Claude, Louise-Marie will never be

Each cigarette would light a thousand faces
Each hour that pass seemed like a thousand years
Midnight was turning into empty spaces
The sound of laughter disappeared

Chorus

Oh, but Jean-Claude - Louise-Marie will never be

A summer morning on des Champs-Élysées
The empty table in the street café
The sunlight melting through an open doorway
Jean-Claude has left to face another day

Chorus - x2

Oh, but Jean-Claude - Louise-Marie will never be
