Feist - La Meme Histoire

i’m in love with feist’s music , and so Am i with this song!

just so you guys know , the original french song actually does not translate
directly to the english version , so “la meme histoire” actually means “the same
story” , not “we’re all in the dance” . but i admit that the english lyrics are just
as lovely , and somehow seem fitting . je t’aime paris , indeed : )

song : la meme histoire
artist : feist

intro : A – E – D – Dm – A

A
quel est donc
E D
ce lien entre nous
Dm A
cette chose indefinissable ?
A Am7 D
ou vont ces destins qui se nouent
Dm A
pour nous rendre inseparables?

( transition : A – E – D – A – Am7 – D )

A E D
life’s a dance , we all have to do
Dm A
what does the music require?
A Am7 D
people are moving together
Dm A
close as the flames in a fire

D A
feel the beat , music and rhyme
D – E
while there is time .

chorus :
D A
we all go round and round
D A
partners lost and found
C# B
looking for one more chance
D Dm
all i know is ,
A E – D
we’re all in the dance
A Am7 – D
we’re all in the dance

[ verse 2 ]
A
quel est donc
E D
ce qui nous separe
Dm A
qui par hasard nous reunit?
A Am7 D
pourquoi tant d’allers , de departs
Dm A
dans cette ronde infinie ?

D
on avance
A
au fil du temps
D E
au gre du vent ainsi

chorus ( in french! ) :

D A
on vit au jour le jour
D A
nos envies , nos amours
C# B
on s’en va sans savoir
D Dm
on est toujours
A E – D
dans la meme histoire

( A – E – D )

D A
we all go round and round
D A
partners lost and found
C# B
looking for one more chance
D Dm
all i know is ,
A E – D
we’re all in the dance
A Am7 – D
dans la meme histoire
Dm A
la meme histoire

* suggestions for the C# – B bit? it sounds a bit off . open to criticism!
