Okay, this is by far the most difficult song on the album to figure out because a large part of the melody
comes from the flute. I've played around with it a lot, and this is the best I've been able to come up
with, but once again, if anyone else thinks they can figure out something that can be improved about it, 
don't hesitate to make any changes.

GParis isn't that roAmmantic
CIf you don't have any Ammoney
GThose cafés aren't so Amcute to walk by
CWhen you're Amhungry
GOur campground on the Amoutskirts of town
Was Call we could afford to Amdo
We Gwere so sick of bein' in the Ambig cities
And Cthis one seemed so Amrude, rude, rude
GWe mailed home all our Amhuge rolls of film
And all the Gchange that we couldn't Amuse
We Gbumped into some girls that we Amknew from Texas
Saw the GMona Lisa, her smile Amseemed so cruel
And we Amused our last ticket to take the train
To a Cboat on the coast that would take us away
To a Gplace that we hoped
Would be the end of our Fsorrows
When we Amgot there we were way too late
There was Cno way we could leave that day
We would Ghave to find a place to stay
And Ftry again tomorrow
AmWe found a secret place to crash
In a Cbush by the docks
That was filled with trash
We Gcleared a spot and we called it a Fday
And I Amwished that I brought my guitar
As I Clooked through the bush
Up at the stars
GFell asleep and got woke up by the Frain
We Cwaited on the porch for the Gdoors to open
And we Amasked the guy if there was any reason hopin'
He Csaid, "Don't give Gup,
Cross your Amfingers, wish for luck"
So I Ccast my spells and I made my Gcurses
AmWishin' that a truck would get stuck
And then Cwe could take their Gplace,
And leave France that Amday.

G Am

Paris isn't that romantic

C Am

If you don't have any money

G Am

Those cafés aren't so cute to walk by

C Am

When you're hungry

G Am

Our campground on the outskirts of town

C Am

Was all we could afford to do

G Am

We were so sick of bein' in the big cities

C Am

And this one seemed so rude, rude, rude

G Am

We mailed home all our huge rolls of film

G Am

And all the change that we couldn't use

G Am

We bumped into some girls that we knew from Texas

G Am

Saw the Mona Lisa, her smile seemed so cruel

And we used our last ticket to take the train

To a boat on the coast that would take us away

To a place that we hoped

Would be the end of our sorrows

When we got there we were way too late

There was no way we could leave that day

We would have to find a place to stay

And try again tomorrow

We found a secret place to crash

In a bush by the docks

That was filled with trash

G F

We cleared a spot and we called it a day

And I wished that I brought my guitar

As I looked through the bush

Up at the stars

G F

Fell asleep and got woke up by the rain

C G

We waited on the porch for the doors to open

And we asked the guy if there was any reason hopin'

C G

He said, "Don't give up,

Cross your fingers, wish for luck"

C G

So I cast my spells and I made my curses

Wishin' that a truck would get stuck

C G

And then we could take their place,

And leave France that day.
