Verse 1:
Em                 F
  Oooooh tristesse de mes nuits
Em                         F
  Je chante la plainte du lit où tu as dormi
Em                           F
Le creux du lit   où ton empreinte vibre encore
      G
Et désole mon corps

     Em                F
Je t'ai cherché te sachant en allé
     Em                F
Et vogué   pour mieux vivre notre amour
Em                           F
 Méchamment, le temps nous sépare
        G
Mais répare aussi   ma vie

Chorus 1:
C           Dm7
  Tristesse de mes jours
C                 Dm
  Je rechante la plainte
Eb                          Bb
  De ta guitare dans le soir
                       C
J’y entend parfois tes doigts

Verse 2:
Em                          F
On s'est aimés, jusqu'à la mort
   Em                 F
Et même après, les effets se sentent encore
         Em                  F
On s’est connus, on s’est bus
                          G
On a fait tout ce qu’on a pu
G
Et même plus

Chorus outro:
C               Dm7
  Caresse de la nuit
C             Dm
  Et de ta mémoire
C                    Dm
  Et tes enfants qui rient
      Eb                 Bb
Alors là je crois te voir
                       C      Dm     Em* G*
Et te retrouverai au pays     de l'absence
