Song

The most melancholic song from 'life for rent'. Simple and truly emotional.
Capo 2nd fret
Em B7 (x2)
Coming back from Paris on the train
I really didn't care if the journey took all day
Trying to turn the pages of my magazine
while trying to keep a hold of your hand
And ordering a coffee that I wouldn't ever drink
just to keep you in Paris on my mind
Just to keep you in Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
the last time I saw you
At Waterloo we went our separate ways
when I got in my cab I didn't turn and wave
Didn't go to work just went to bed
trying to keep you in Paris on my mind
Trying to keep you in Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
the last time I saw you
Em B7 (x2)
I phoned your office this afternoon
they said they hadn't heard anything from you
It's been seven days without a word
I have to keep you in Paris on my mind
I have to keep you in Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
the last time I saw you
Going back to Paris on the train
raining and without you it's not the same
I have to do this journey one more time
just to keep you in Paris on my mind
Just to keep you in Paris on my mind 
I didn't know it would be the last time 
the last time ... I saw you
The last time ... I saw you (x3)
