The weather is clearing, birds are appearing,

and I'm only three miles from Dover,

to the wind and the ocean, I'm throwing caution,
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?C5
oh, I can't wait to get back over.
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? C5
After two 'Beaujolais' everybody is laughing,
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ??C5
it's better than smoking and its two times as healthy,

my pockets are empty but I'm feeling wealthy,

The last time I was there, she wore her gold hair,
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ?C5
tied at the back in a pigtail,

I wonder if she still cares, or even if she's still there,
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? C5
oh, I don't want to go into details.
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? C5
Well, the street that she lived in was called Rue Moutard
F5 ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? ? C5
