C#m7-5 Cm7-5 Bm7  Bm7-5  E7       E7/9  E7       A      D9  Bm7-5  A
"C'est   si  bon" --        lovers say that in France

          Fdim         Bm7  Bm7-5  E7
When they thrill to romance;

             Bm7-5 E7 A6     Cdim  E7/9
It means that it's so good.


C#m7-5 Cm7-5 Bm7  Bm7-5  E7        E7/9  E7     A   D9  Bm7-5  A
C'est   si   bon --           so I say   it to you

          Fdim         Bm7  Bm7-5  E7
Like the French people do

            Bm7-5 E7  A
Because it's oh,  so good.



Bridge:


A7    F            Dm7       CM7/6  CM7
Ev'ry word, ev'ry sigh, ev'ry kiss, dear,

         B7         Bm7   Bm7-5      E7 
Leads to only one thought, and it's this, dear:


C#m7-5 Cm7-5 Bm7  Bm7-5  E7         E7/9 E7     A    D9  Bm7-5  A
It's    so   good,          nothing else can replace

           Fdim        Bm7  Bm7-5  E7
Just your slightest embrace

                 Em7     F#7
And if you only would

      Bm7 Dm7                    AM7
Be my own     for the rest of my days,

A                    A7    Bm7-5  E7
I will whisper this phrase,



First Time:

   Bm7-5    E7/9  E7  A Edim  E7 
My darling, c'est si bon.



Last Time:

   Bm7-5    E7/9  E7  A  D9   A6
My darling, c'est si bon.
