Your streets were paved with love
                         G#m   D       E C#m B
Your skies were blue, goodbye Toulouse
  E
I walked your streets in fear

I washed your streets with tears, Toulouse

Goodbye Toulouse

     E
Your cafes tell the tales
                  G#m      D       E C#m B
Of saddened millionaires, Toulouse
  E
A million dreams I've had
                    G#m    D       E C#m B (riff)
A million lies I've told, Toulouse
F#m G#m  A  B
Goodbye Toulouse
