Dm Bb Am G F
Dm Bb Am G F
[Verse]
It's a Dmheartwarming sonBbg for the Ameasily movedG  F  
The effDmect is all wronBbg plain to Amsee I'm not movedG  F  
As I sDmtand in the lighBbt of a Amshop that is closedG  F  
God, I'd Dmlove me a fighBbt there's no Ampoem just proseG  
[Chorus]
Edith FPiaf said it Dmbetter than Bbme “AmJe ne regrette riGen”
Pretty Fsong, but not inDmtended for Bbme, Amtime to put some Muzak onG  F  
[Verse]
There were Dmno smoky divesBb, few aAmmours, fou or notG  F  
There were Dmno petty crimeBbs, foreign Amsubstances boughtG  F  
There were Dmno midnight driveBbs with a Amcrime boss's wifeG  F  
Need a Dmsentence at moBbst in asAmsessing my lifeG  
[Chorus]
Edith FPiaf said it Dmbetter than Bbme “AmJe ne regrette riGen”
Pretty Fsong, but not inDmtended for Bbme, Amtime to put some Muzak onG  F  
[Bridge]
AmDrunken and Emshort-lived flings, DmMontparnasse lights
AmHolding a Emhand of kingsDm, my hunch was right, Cwhen's that nGight?
[Chorus]
Edith Piaf said it Dmbetter than Bbme “AmJe ne regrette riGen”
Pretty Fsong, but not inDmtended for Bbme, Amtime to put some Muzak onG  F  
[Bridge]
Live Dmfast and die young, live Bbfast and die young, live Amfast and die young, too Glate for that too Flate for that
Live Dmfast and die young, live Bbfast and die young, live Amfast and die young, too Glate for that too Flate for that
Live Dmfast and die young, live Bbfast and die young, live Amfast and die young, too Glate for that too Flate for that
Live Dmfast and die young, live Bbfast and die young, live Amfast and die young, too Glate for that too Flate for that
[Verse]
Think of Dmone single nighBbt, one so sAmtrong, you're aflameG  F  
Well, I'm Dmsorry, time's upBb, sorry, Amnothing will changeG  F  
[Chorus]
Edith Piaf said it Dmbetter than Bbme “AmJe ne regrette riGen”
Pretty Fsong, but not inDmtended for Bbme, Amtime to put some Muzak onG  F

Edith Piaf said it Dmbetter born to be bad I was Bbborn to be bad I was Amborn to be bad Gnot this time Fnot this time
DmBorn to be bad, I was Bbborn to be bad, I was Amborn to be bad, Gnot this time, Fnot this time
