[Verse 2]
I deal in Adreamers
And telephone D/Ascreamers
Lately I C/Gwonder what I do it for
If I had my Gway
I'd just Fwalk through those doors and Awander
Down the Champs-ÉD/Alysées
Going café to C/Gcabaret
Thinking how I'll feel when GI find

That very good friend of mine
[Chorus]
I was a F/Cfree man in Paris
I felt unGfettered and alCive
There was nobody Asus4calling me up for Dfavors
And no one’s Afuture to decide
You know I'd F/Cgo back there tomorrow
But for the Gwork I've taken Con
Stoking the Asus4star-maker maDchinery
