Standard Tuning: EADGBE
Note: I did not tab out the exact strumming patterns as a lot of it is improvised. I
only provide the chords/notes. I also didn't tab the entire song because the same parts
are used in the second half except for the outro.

Nicolas Godin: This is a song I wrote in a hotel room after a lovely weekend with a
girl. And then Monday morning she left without saying a word and I wrote it on my guitar,
very simple. Crazy French girls!
Jean-Benoit: Nicolas and I are always talking about this non-existent girl that we want
to meet, that we’d like to have in our bed, the one who left, recently. In our minds we
say to her, “come back I love you, I’ve been a naughty boy”. This is our obsession right now.
