6 -6 6 -3 -4
A-pril’s in the air
5 6 7 -7 -8
But here in Par-is
9 -9 8 -6 7 7 -5
A-pril wears a dif-f’rent gown
8 -9 8 -6 7 7
You can see her waltz-ing
-5 7 -5*
Down the street
7 -7 -8 6
The tang of wine
-6 6 -3 -4
Is in the air
5 6 7 -7 -8 9 -9 8
I’m drunk with all the hap-pi-ness
-6 7 7 -5
That Spring can give
-5 6 -6* 7* -6* 6
Nev-er dreamed it could be
-5 6 -6* -8 -7 -9
So ex-cit-ing to live

-6 -6 -6 -5* 6 -6 -6 -6 -5* 6
A-pril in Par-is, chest-nuts in blos-som
-5 -5 -5 -4 5 6 7 -8 -9
Hol-i-day tab-les un-der the trees
-9 -9 -9 -8 9 -9 -9 -9 -8 8
A-pril in Par-is, this is a feel-ing
8 8 8 -7 -8 9 10
No one can ev-er re-prise

10 -9 -7* -8 -9 9 9 9
I nev-er knew the charm of Spring
-9 -7* -8 -9 9 9 9
Nev-er met it face to face
10 -9 -7* -8 -9 8 8 8
I nev-er knew my heart could sing
8 7* -7 8 -8 -8 7* 7
Nev-er missed a warm em-brace till
-6 -6 -6 -5* 6
A-pril in Par-is
-7* -7*-7* 7* -7
Whom can I run to
-9 -9 -9 -8 9 -9 9
What have you done to my heart
