1. [Em]A summer evening on Les Champs [Am]Elyses
A secret rendezvous they [Em]planned for days
I see faces in the [Am]crowded cafe
A sound of Laughter as the [Em]music plays [Em] [Am] [Em]
[Em]Jeanne-Claude’s student at the [Am]University
Louise-Marie is just a [Em]world away
You recall the night they met was [Am]warm with laughter
The words and music as she [Em]turned away
Chorus:
[D]I’ll meet you at [Em]midnight
[D]Under the moon- [Em]light
[D]I’ll meet you at [Em]midnight
Oh, but Jeanne-Claude, Louise-Marie will [Am]never be
2. [Em]Each cigarette will light a thousand [Am]faces
The shade is passing like a [Em]thousand years
Midnight was turning into [Am]empty spaces
The sound of laughter’d [Em]disappeared.
Chorus:
[D]I’ll meet you at [Em]midnight
[D]Under the moon- [Em]light
[D]I’ll meet you at [Em]midnight
Oh, but Jeanne-Claude, Louise-Marie will [Am]never be
[Em]A summer morning on Les Champs [Am]Elyses
The entertainment in the [Em]street cafe
The sunlight melting through an [Am]open doorway
Jeanne-Claude has left some [Em]other day
Chorus:
[D]I’ll meet you at [Em]midnight
[D]Under the moon- [Em]light
[D]I’ll meet you at [Em]midnight
