Where Do You Go To My Lovely (ver 5) Chords
C Em
You talk like Marlene Dietrich
Dm G
And you dance like Zizi Jeanmaire
C Em
Your clothes are all made by Balmain
Dm G F Em G
And there's diamonds and pearls in your hair, yes there are.
C Em
You live in a fancy apartment
Dm G
Off the Boulevard of St. Michel
C Em
Where you keep your Rolling Stones records
Dm G F Em G
And a friend of Sacha Distel, yes you do.
C Em
You go to the embassy parties
Dm G
Where you talk in Russian and Greek
C Em
And the young men who move in your circles
Dm G F Em G
They hang on every word you speak, yes they do.
C Em
But where do you go to my lovely
Dm G
When you're alone in your bed
C Em
Tell me the thoughts that surround you
Dm G F Em G
I want to look inside your head, yes i do.
C Em
I've seen all your qualifications
Dm G
You got from the Sorbonne
C Em
And the painting you stole from Picasso
Dm G F Em G
Your loveliness goes on and on, yes it does.
C Em
When you go on your summer vacation
Dm G
You go to Juan-les-Pines
C Em
With your carefully designed topless swimsuit
Dm G F Em G
You get an even suntan, on your back and on your legs.
C Em
And when the snow falls you're found in St. Moritz
Dm G
With the others of the jet-set
C Em
And you sip your Napoleon Brandy
Dm G F Em G
But you never get your lips wet, no you don't.
C Em
But where do you go to my lovely
Dm G
When you're alone in your bed
C Em
would you Tell me the thoughts that surround you
Dm G F Em G
I want to look inside your head, yes I do.
C Em
You're in between 20 and 30
Dm G
A very desirable age
C Em
Your body is firm and inviting
Dm G F Em G
But you live on a glittering stage, yes you do, yes you do.
C Em
Your name is heard in high places
Dm G
You know the Aga Khan
C Em
He sent you a racehorse for Christmas
Dm G F Em G
And you keep it just for fun, for a laugh ha-ha-ha
C Em
They say that when you get married
Dm G
It'll be to a millionaire
C Em
But they don't realize where you came from
Dm G F Em G
And I wonder if they really care, or give a damn
C Em
But where do you go to my lovely
Dm G
When you're alone in your bed
C Em
Tell me the thoughts that surround you
Dm G F Em G
I want to look inside your head, yes i do.
C Em
I remember the back streets of Naples
Dm G
Two children begging in rags
C Em
Both touched with a burning ambition
Dm G F Em G
To shake off their lowly-borne tags, they try
C Em
So look into my face Marie-Claire
Dm G
And remember just who you are
C Em
Then go and forget me forever
Dm G F Em G
But I know you still bear the scar, deep inside, yes you do
C Em
I know where you go to my lovely
Dm G
When you're alone in your bed
C Em
I know the thoughts that surround you
Dm G F Em G
'Cause I can look inside your head.
