Alons, viens encore, cherie.
E F#m E E7 A
J'attendrai patiemment sous la lampe dans la vieille avenue.

Then I may end
A Bm E E7
She had things to buy
A D
I close my eyes
A Bm E E7
Yet I don't know why
A D E D A
I gave her money; said she knew someone
D E D A
And she said she won't be long
Bm E A Bm D A
Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning
Bm E A Bm D A
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine
A D A Bm E E7
I sat alone with my thoughts and laughed
A D A Bm E E7
Then saw your face in an old photograph
A D E D A D E D A
I didn't think that I could live without you but what am I to do ?
Bm E A Bm D A
Lamplight keep on burning while this heart of mine is yearning
Bm E A Bm D A
Lamplight keep on burning till this love of yours is mine
A D A E
Come home again dear, I have waited year after year
F#m E E7 A
under the lamp in our old avenue
D E F#m D Bm E E7
If all in the world that's laughing, why should it make us cry?
A D A E F#m E E7 A
Ah...
