Standing Cthere across the Am7river, mid sDm7ound of horn and traG7m,
in Call her quiet Am7beauty, the cDm7athedral Notre DamG7e,
And Cas we passed beAm7side her, I sDm7aid a little praG7yer

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?
