ALL:
A                F#m
Try to catch our eye
     D                 E
Show something that we haven't seen
    A            F#m
And make us feel alive
   D               E
Beyond boredom and vanity
    A              F#m
And when I see the skies
  D                 E
Remind me what it's like to be
  A               F#m
A person stuck in time
       D             E
That's searching for identity
   A       E
So help me please
F#m E   A
Impress me

A          E   F#m
Find me in Montmartre
D                           A
High above the madness of Paris
A
Step inside
       G             A
Take a break from reality
A              E   F#m
Selling our philosophies
D                A
Bored with being bourgeoisie

Paris takes itself too seriously

Montmartre's the only part of the city that gets me

Government's reinventing the wheel

Still digging up bits of the Bastille


ALL:
E                  F#m
Time to admit this country's a circus

There were too many Louis


MORISOT:
F#m
Too many Napoleons


ALL:
D                           E
Too many choices for future historians
A            E             F#m
 At least in Montmartre we get lost on
E
purpose
A                          E
 If you wanted God there's Notre Dame
F#m                     D
   We deal in something different than psalms
D                             E
 Found in the passage between brains and heart
E
Montmartre is for art
A                F#m
Try to catch our eye
     D                 E
Show something that we haven't seen
    A            F#m
And make us feel alive
  D                E
Beyond boredom and vanity
    A              F#m
And when I see the skies
  D                 E
Remind me what it's like to be
  A               F#m
A person stuck in time
       D             E
That's searching for identity
   A       E
So help me please
F#m E   A
Impress me


THEO:
A                       D
Galleries are gravity
A                         E
Artists find their way to Goupil & Cie
         A
They say Theo, Theo
F#m
Theo van Gogh
           A
Before you go
       A
Let me know
         F#m         E
What you think of my paintings
D                    A
That's the daily serenade


ALL:
       D                       A
'Cause selling artwork is your trade


THEO:
A F#m      A       E
Paris, the city of light

A farmer

 Worthy of the Grand Boulevard
A
Theo, Theo
       F#m           A
Do you think you can sell it?


THEO:
     D
They wish that I could help but still the
A
answer's no
D                                 F#m    E
I can't take a chance against the status quo
    D                              F#m
Not everyone gets hung up with the chosen few

Come come Theo, we both know they are not here to behave
     E                           A
They came to Montmartre to drink my wine
       F#m                  A
To get tangled in something clandestine
          E                  A
Treat the Champs-Élyssés for cabaret
    E                   B
For bohemia without the beret
         E              B
You were people minding manners
      E               B
Lower rents and lower standards


GAUGUIN: (Spoken)
N.C
Hey


MORISOT: (Spoken)
N.C
Not that low


SEGATORI:
           B          F#m  G     B
To spend a franc on a late night tryst

Save a few coins for my canvas?

A            G     A
 At Le Tambourin cafe
A                            D
Who knows what tomorrow will bring

Until then

For curiosity

To be free

To be free


THEO:
D                           E
 Sure as the passage of the river Seine

The future will be forged with brushes,
F#m
pencils, and pens

E
Bethlehem
    A
And art is our amen

Remind me what it's like to be
