France chords by Carl Barat

Chords with lyrics

This is the version of Carl's live from Rolling Stone Performance, interesting
because, in despite of the easy way to play the song, you get a remarkable effect.
I placed the chords thinking about the vocals; if you listen to this version of
the song you can understand what I'm talking about.

TUNING: EADGBE
NO CAPO

Intro: B minorBm G+G E minorEm F#F#

 B minorBm       G+G
The ideal girl in London from France
 E minorEm
Came over then left me
 F#F#
She left me entranced
 F#F#  B minorBm         G+G
Now I have to get by once again on my own
    E minorEm  F#F#
Nothing but memories

  B minorBm            G+G
So I remember your eyes that unique shade of brown
      E minorEm              F#F#
While these blue eyes of mine they stay closed
 B minorBm
I kissed you goodbye
   G+G    E minorEm             F#F#
On the M109 I choked as I watched the bus go

  B minorBm             G+G
I'm choking and smoking to your angelic soul
   E minorEm         F#F#
I'm choking and smoking myself into a hole
 B minorBm             G+G
Where the only way out is to sleep and to dream
   E minorEm      F#F#
And to cry out your name.
