(Chords for vs. 3 & 4 same as for vs. 1 & 2) 
 
Vs.III.  I walked alone down the miracle mile 

         I met my baby by the shrine of the martyr 

         She stole my heart with her cajun smile 

         Singin' voulez voulez voulez vous 
 
Vs. IV.  She loved the million-dollar words I say 

         She loved the candy and the flowers that I bought her 

         She said she loved me and was on her way 

         Singin' voulez voulez voulez vous
