AJ'ai pensé qu'il valait F#mmieux
Nous quitBmter sans un adieu
Je n'auBmrai pas eu le Ecoeur de te reAvoir
AEt j'entends siffler le F#mtrain
Et j'enBmtends siffler le train
Que c'est Bmtriste un train qui Esiffle dans le Asoir
AJe pouvais t'imagiF#mner,
Toute Bmseule abandonnée
Sur le Bmquai, dans la coEhue des au-reAvoirs
AJ'ai failli courir vers F#mtoi
j'ai failBmli crier vers toi
C'est à Bmpeine si j'ai Epu me reteAnir
AQue c'est loin où tu t'en F#mvas
Que c'est lBmoin où tu t'en vas
Auras-Bmtu jamais le Etemps de reveAnir ?
AJ'ai pensé qu'il valait F#mmieux
Nous quiBmtter sans un adieu
Mais je Bmsens que mainteEnant tout est fiAni!
AEt j'entends siffler le F#mtrain
Et j'enBmtends siffler le train
J'entenBmdrai siffler ce Etrain toute ma Avie.
J'entenBmdrai siffler ce Etrain toute ma Avie.
