1st verse:
066650 007870 066650 099890
L'Allemande used to visit me in Paris in Paris
066650 007870 066650 099890
I remember the men I re- member the houses in

Paris
066650 504400 324100 204200
And he'd come in looking for comfort
076600 899800 x76400 70x898
Leave again looking to the left and the right
0xx897 0xx886
Did we see too much
0xx897 0xx886
Say too little
877600 0xxxxx 201200
Stepping over every dark thing
877600 0xxxxx 201200
would it all be true tomorrow
70x898
But, he loves me

2nd verse: same patterns as 1st verse
046650 x24440 x04440 7xx898
I walk with my head held high and naked in the

sun claiming these streets for my- self

3rd verse:
066650 007870 066650 099890
I am the unchanging narrative, I don't resolve
066650 007870 066650 099890
neatly
066650 007870 066650 099890
And I am the unchained melody, the current of the need
066650 007870 066650 099890
to survive
