------------------------------------------------------------------------- PARIS - Joshua Kadison ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Tabbed by: Kengus Ok so I decided to go with capo on first, to try to make the chords as simple as possible. Almost succeeded. What makes it tricky is the modulations in the song. Try these chords, see how they work for you. Have fun. Standard tuning Capo on first fret!
