The Seine - Kingston Trio Rick in Macon
C Am7 Dm7 G7
One night along the river at St. Germain de Pre,
C Am7 Dm7 G7
I first met my beloved at a small sidewalk cafe.
C Am7 Dm7 G7
We walked along the river, the shadows passing by
C Am7 Dm7 G7 C
but we only saw each other, the shining water and the sky.
Am7 Dm7 G7
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
[Chorus:]
C Am7 Dm7 G7
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again
C Am7 Dm7 G7
meet her there, greet her there
C G7 C G7
on the moonlit banks of the Seine?
C Am7 Dm7 G7
Standing there across the river, mid sound of horn and tram,
C Am7 Dm7 G7
in all her quiet beauty, the cathedral Notre Dame,
C Am7 Dm7 G7
And as we passed beside her, I said a little prayer
C Am7 Dm7 G7 C
that when this dream was over, I'd awake and find you there.
Am7 Dm7 G7
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
[Chorus]
C Am7 Dm7 G7
We walked along the river, 'till dawn was coming nigh.
C Am7 Dm7 G7
Beneath the Eiffel Tower we said our last good-bye.
C Am7 Dm7 G7
There on that splendid morning, I left you all in tears
C Am7 Dm7 G7 C
and the beauty of that hour will shine within me through the years
Am7 Dm7 G7
Ooh Ooh, ooh ooh ooh
[Chorus]
C Am7 Dm7 G7
The Seine, the Seine, when will I again
C G7 C
(SLOWLY) meet her there on the Seine?
