         A country girl in Paris, moonlight on the Seine

Memories of Tennessee, Nashville in the          rain

         It's such a contradiction, a heart that's filled with   pain
        G       G7      C
         A country girl in Paris dreamin'        Nashville in the        rain

         She walks along the boulevard Champs Elysee
        C7
Thinks about a country boy three thousand miles          away

         Pride is such a hard thing, It's such a price to        pay
        G       G7      C
To be    all alone in Paris with true    love so far     away

        Am      F       C
         Up upon Montmartre when she     stops to rest a         while
        Em      F       G
         All the artists look at her and they    long to paint her       
smile
        Am      F       C
For      even in her sorrow there's      something in her        eyes
        Em      F       G
         That makes the young men jealous,       makes the old men       
sigh

         They say the loss of innocence is       always linked to        pain
        Em      F       G
         For once the heart is opened nothing    ever is the     same
        Am      F       C
         And so the evening lends itself to      lovers and ro   mance
        Em      F
         The way to heal a broken heart is to    give true love

Just     one more  chance
