Текст песни с аккордами
Вступление
This song is kind of an english version of "Les Passantes - Georges Brassens".
It shares almost the same melody and chord progression pitched up by 1 and a half tone.
Thus removing the capo 3th will leave you with the same key as the "original" Georges Brassens' song.

[Intro]
F E A7 Dm Am G Am Am
[Verse 1]
F E
I sing you a song that I offer
A7 Dm
To all the women you love for
Am G7 C E
A moment, a brief secret time
F E
To those that you scarcely had met when
A7 Dm
A different destiny led them
Am G Am Am
To places you can't even find
[Verse 2]
F E
To her that you saw for an instant
A7 Dm
Appear at her window quite distant
Am G7 C E
Then suddenly vanish away
F E
Her slim silhouette a mere outline
A7 Dm
So gracefully faded for all time
Am G Am Am
But filled you with joy come to stay
[Verse 3]
F E
To her on a train you were travelling
A7 Dm
Whose beautiful eyes left you marvelling
Am G7 C E
And shortened the journey so much
F E
Perhaps you alone understood her
A7 Dm
You watched her get out: But you couldn't
Am G Am Am
Even give her soft hand one light touch
[Verse 4]
F E
To women already bespoken
A7 Dm
Who find that their life's a mere token
Am G7 C E
With someone that seems not to care
F E
They once, in a moment of madness
A7 Dm
Described the unbearable sadness
Am G Am Am
When life holds our only despair
[Verse 5]
F E
The vision once glimpsed and idealised
A7 Dm
The shortest-lived hopes, never realised
Am G7 C E
Remains in our minds just one day
F E
Whatever brief happiness takes you
A7 Dm
The memory will quickly forsake you
Am G Am Am
Of those you once met on your way
[Verse 6]
F E
But feeling your life has been wasted
A7 Dm
You wish with regret that you'd tasted
Am G7 C E
And known what these joys might have been
F E
The kisses you dared not discover
A7 Dm
The hearts that await you forever
Am G Am Am
Those eyes and their glances unseen
[Verse 7]
F E
When weariness lengthens your evenings
A7 Dm
You people your solitude, grieving
Am G7 C E
With phantoms your memory retains
F E
You mourn absent lips of these countless
A7 Dm
Fair passers-by briefly encountered
Am G Am Am
You didn't know how to detain
[Outro]
