J’avais dessi[C]né sur le [E7]sable son doux vi[F]sage qui me sour[G7]iait
Puis il a [C]plu sur cette [E7]plage, dans cet or[F]age, elle a dispa[G7]ru


Et j’ai cri[C]é, cri[E7]é A[F]line pour qu’elle re[G7]vienne
Et j’ai pleu[C]ré, pleu[E7]ré, oh! [F]j’avais trop de [G7]peine


Je me suis as[C]sis auprès de mon [E7]âme,
mais la belle [F]dame s’était [G7]enfuie
Je l’ai cher[C]chée sans plus y [E7]croire,
et sans un es[F]poir, pour me guider [G7]


Et j’ai cri[C]é, cri[E7]é A[F]line pour qu’elle re[G7]vienne
Et j’ai pleu[C]ré, pleu[E7]ré, oh! [F]j’avais trop de [G7]peine


Je n’ai gar[C]dé que ce doux vi[E7]sage comme une é[F]pave sur le sable mouil[G7]lé


Et j’ai cri[C]é, cri[E7]é A[F]line pour qu’elle rev[G7]ienne
Et j’ai pleu[C]ré, pleu[E7]ré, oh[F]! j’avais trop de [G7]peine


Et j’ai cri[C]é, cri[E7]é A[F]line pour qu’elle rev[G7]ienne
Et j’ai pleu[C]ré, pleu[E7]ré, oh! [F]j’avais trop de [G7]peine
