Version 1 Version 2 Version 3WHERE DO YOU GO TO MY LOVELY C Em G You talk like Marlene Dietrich and you dance like Zizi Jean-Maire C Em Dm Your clothes are all made by Balmain and there’s diamonds and pearls in your hair. C Em G You live in a fancy apartment off the Boulevard St. Michel. C Em G Where you keep your Rolling Stones records and a friend of Sacha Distel. C Em Dm G You go to the Embassy parties where you talk in Russian and Greek. C And the young men who move in your circles, they hang on every word that you speak. Yes do. Chorus C Em Dm G But where do you go to my lovely…when your alone in your bed. C Em Dm G Tell me the thoughts that surround you, I want to look inside your head, yes I do. C Em Dm G I’ve seen all your qualifications ………. you got from the Sorbonne. C Em Dm G And the painting you stole from Picasso, Your love letters goes on and on C Em Dm G When you go on your summer vacation, you go to Juan-les-Pins. C Em With you carefully designed topless swim suit Dm G You get an even sun tan, on your back and on your legs. C Em Dm G And when the snow falls your found in St.Moritz, with the others of the jet set. C Em Dm G And you sip your Napoleon Brandy, but you never get your lips wet. No you don’t Chorus C Em Dm G But where do you go to my lovely…when your alone in your bed. C Em Dm G Tell me the thoughts that surround you, I want to look inside your head, yes I do. C Em Dm G Your in between twenty and thirty, a very desirable age. C Em Dm G Your body is firm and inviting, but you live on a glittering stage. Yes you do, yes you do C Em Dm G Your name it, is heard in high places. You know the Agha Khan. C Em Dm G He sent you a racehorse for Christmas, and you keep it just for fun, For a laugh, aha aha C Em Dm G They say that when you get married, It will be to a millionaire. C Em Dm But they don’t realize where you came from and I wonder If they really G care, or giva a damn. Chorus C Em Dm G But where do you go to my lovely…when your alone in your bed. C Em Dm G Tell me the thoughts that surround you, I want to look inside your head, yes I do. C Em Dm G Ah, remember the back streets of Naples, two children begging in rags. C Em Dm G Both touched with a burning ambition to shake off their lowly-born tags. So they try. C Em Dm G So look into my face Marie-Claire and remember just who you are. C Em Then go and forget me forever, Dm G But I know you still bare the scar, deep inside, yes you do. C Em Dm G I know where you go to my loveley… when your alone in your bed. Slow down…………………. C Em Dm G C I know the thoughts that surround you, cause I can look inside your head. Repeat verse 1 and chorus to end
