A D
The way I see it he said you just can't win it
C G
Everybody's in it for their own gain; you can't please them all
F A
There's always somebody calling you down
D
I do my best and I do good business
C
There's a lot of people asking for my time
G
They're tryin' to get ahead;
F A
They're tryin' to be a good friend of mine
[Chorus]

I was a free man in Paris

I felt unfettered and ali-ve

There was nobody callin' me up for favours

And no-one’s future to decide

You know I'd go back there tomorrow

I deal in dreamers and telephone screamers
C G
Lately I wonder what I do it for; if I had my way
F A
I'd just walk through those doors and wander
D
Down the Champs Elysees;
C
Going café to cabaret thinking
G
How I'd feel when I find
F A
That very good friend of mine
[Chorus]

I was a free man in Paris
