A country girl in Paris, moonlight on the Seine 
                                        C5
Memories of Tennessee, Nashville in the rain 
F5                                                     C5
It's such a contradiction, a heart that's filled with pain 
G5                                G5               C5
A country girl in Paris dreamin' Nashville in the rain 
C5
She walks along the boulevard Champs Elysee 
                                                C5
Thinks about a country boy three thousand miles away 
F5                                                C5
Pride is such a hard thing, It's such a price to pay 
      G5                            G5          C5
To be all alone in Paris with true love so far away 
A5                          F5               C5
Up upon Montmartre when she stops to rest a while 
E5                                   F5                 G5
All the artists look at her and they long to paint her  

smile 
    A5                         F5                C5
For even in her sorrow there's something in her eyes 
E5                                F5                 G5
That makes the young men jealous, makes the old men  

sigh

G5                             G5 C5
A country girl in Paris . . .  
A5                                F5                C5
They say the loss of innocence is always linked to pain 
E5                                   F5           G5
For once the heart is opened nothing ever is the same 
A5                                 F5             C5
And so the evening lends itself to lovers and ro mance 
E5                                   F5
The way to heal a broken heart is to give true love 
     G5                G5
Just one more  chance
