(Lots of Ryan Adams-y hammer-ons and pull-offs)
 
 
 
Intro: F - C - G
 
 
 
C
Midnight comes in
 
Am    G
Paris and as
 
C
I light my cigarette
 
    Am              G
The rain it hits my face
 
C
So I start walking
 
Am         G
Toward the Ferris wheel
 
C
From my hotel on
 
Am        G
Champs-Élysées
 
    Em       Am  F
For now I am alone
 
        Em        Am  G
I might always be alone
 
 
-Chorus-
 
 
   F                       C
My heart is in the city of love
 
                    G
But it's raining in Paris
 
F                       C
What good is a heart of gold
 
               G
With nobody to share it with
 
            F                 C
It's coming down, it's coming down
 
   Am       G      F
My head can hardly bare it
 
   F                       G
My heart is in the city of love
 
                    F
But it's raining in Paris
 
 
Intro
 
 
Am        G       C
So let it rain on me
 
       Am         G
See my heart's on fire
 
      C
But I always got cold feet
 
Am         G          F  C         G
Love never really did anything for me
 
Am                       G          C
Try telling that to this goddamn city
 
Am         G            C
And if the storm should stop
 
    Am         G             C
I'd ask you to dance on some cliche mountain top
 
Am         G              F        C       G
We'd share straws at your favorite coffee shop
 
    Am               G
But life it ain't no romance novel
 
 
 
-Chorus-
 
 
C
I met a man
 
    Am     G
Who sold umbrellas
 
        C
and
 
 
just five dollars
 
      Am               G
saved me from all that rain
 
 
    Em       Am  F
For now I am alone
 
          Em         Am  G
I think I like being alone

Yep ! Except that in the intro I think it's Fmaj7 instead of F and G7 instead of G. It't a chord sequence they use a lot in The Maine. And it's easier to play, especially with the hammer-ons and pull-offs. Let me know what you think.
