Here is a basic chord chart that I put together listening to the Alfonso Ponticelli & Swing Gitan version of this tune. I'm pretty sure its right, but there might be a few errors, my ear often deceives me.

I have not heard to many other versions of this tune, although I know that there out there, but the way they play it, it goes AABACA which is only about 2 1/2 minutes.

Anyways it's a great tune, I play it with a manolin player who plays the melody and a bass player who bows the bass line, and it's really fun.

    I enjoy playing this one with a flute player and also sing one verse out of the lyrics I found in a song book called "The Crooners". Very enjoyable and the words reflect the ambience and romance of Paris.
