ADIEU SWEET BAHNHOF
Adieu Sweet Bahnhof

Am           G           F    G         Am
I have been waiting for hours in this train
         G              F       Em       Dm
And I'm riding through Brussels in the rain 
         C      Dm      E       Am
Back to Paris more or less confused
         G          F       G      Am
by the shadows of tractors on the land
         G         F      Em    Dm
by the changes in my life I pretend
           C        Dm       E        Am
there's a new life waiting there for me


Am         G         F       G         Am
I asked myself what sort of books I'd read
       G         F    Em       Dm
in a train if I ever felt the need
         C              Dm     E
I have bought "my life with Picasso"
Am          G        F         G       Am
I think of so many things I'd like to do
        G         F       Em   Dm
I will go to the center Pompidou
            C         Dm      E       Am
There's a still-life part of my life too


  Cm      Gm   Am   E 
Adieu, adieu sweet Bahnhof
D             G          C
My train of thoughts is leaving
Cm      Gm   Am   E 
Adieu, adieu sweet Bahnhof
D             G          C
My train of thoughts is leaving
   Am
tonight


Am          G            F        G       Am
Now like an arrow we're aimed at Gare du Nord
         G            F       Em          Dm
Between backs of the houses streets like fjords
         C          Dm     E
and the night falls over Paris
Am            G           F      G     Am
So I've come back to the Hotel d'Angleterre
        G         F     Em       Dm
I lay down on a double bed and stare 
         C       Dm      E     Am
at the ceiling, what a feeling (to be back!!)


Instrumental : G F G Am   G F Em Dm   C Dm E Am


Cm      Gm   Am   E 
Adieu, adieu sweet Bahnhof
D             G          C
My train of thoughts is leaving
Cm      Gm   Am   E 
Adieu, adieu sweet Bahnhof
D             G          C
My train of thoughts is leaving
   Am
tonight
