aka "Que c'est triste Venise"
BY:
Charles Aznavour(Music);
Gene Lees (Lyrics-English);
Francoise Dorin (Lyrics-French)

[Key - Bb]

[VERSE 1]
Bb
How sad Venice can be
F
When you return alone
Gm
To find a memory
F
In every paving stone.
Cm
I walk among the birds
F
That fill San Marco's Square
C
With echoes of her words
F
Around me in the air.

[CHORUS]
Bb
How sad Venice can be
G
When the mandolins play
Cm
A song she sung for me
F
One unforgotten day.
Bb
Like images of sleep
Eb
The gondoliers go by
Cm
But when I try to weep
F Bb
I find my tears are dry.

[Key Change - B]

[VERSE 2]
B
How sad Venice can be
Abm
When mist is in your eyes
C#m
And you can hardly see
F#
As pigeons fill the skies.
