Parnasse, what are you doing so far out of our patch
7 <-6 7 -7 -8 -7 7 7 <-6 7 -7 -8 6
This house, we’re gonna do it; rich man, plenty of scratch
6 6 6 6 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6 -7 -7 -7 -7 <7 <-6 6
You remember he’s the one who got away the other day
7 7 7 7 -7 -7 -7 -7 8 8 8 8 -8 8 -8
Got a number on his chest, perhaps a fortune put away
7 <-6 7 -7 -8 -7 7 7 <-6 7 -7 -8 6
Oh Lord, somebody help me; dear God, what’ll I do
7 <-6 7 -7 -8 -7 7 7 <-6 7 -7 -8 6
He’ll think this is an ambush, he’ll think I’m in it too
7 <-6 6 <-5 7 <-6 6 <-5
What’ll I do, what’ll I say
6 <-5 6 <-5 6 <-5 6 <-5 6 <-5 5 -4
I’ve got to warn them here, I’ve got to find a way
<5 <5 <5 <5 <5 <5 <5 6 6 6 6
This is his lair, I’ve seen the old fox around
6 6 6 <7 <7 <7 <7
He keeps himself to himself,
<7 <7 <7 <8 <8 <8 <8 <-9 10 <-9 <9 <9
He’s staying close to the ground, I smell profit here
<5 <5 <5 <5 <5 <5 <5 6 6 6 6
Ten years ago, he came and paid for Cosette
6 6 6 <7 <7 <7 <7 <7 <7 <7 <8 <8 <8 <8
I let her go for a song, it’s time we settled the debt
<-9 10 <-9 <9 <9
This’ll cost him dear
-8 <8 -8 <8 -8 <8 -8 <8
What do I care who you should rob
-8 <8 -8 <8 -8 <8 -8 <8
Give me my share, finish the job
-8 <8 -8 <8 -8 <8 -8 <8
You shut your mouth, you get what’s yours
-8 <8 -8 <8 10 10 10 <-9 <9
What have we here, who is this hussy
<9 <-9 10 <-9 10 <-9 <9 <-9 10 <-9 10 <-9
It’s your brat Eponine, don’t you know your own kid
<9 <-9 10 <-9 10 <-9 <9
Why’s she hanging about you
<9 <-9 10 <-9 10 <-9 <9 <-9 10 <-9 10 <-9
Eponine, get on home, you’re not needed in this
<9 <-9 10 <-9 10 <-9 <9
We’re enough here without you
<8 <8 <7 <7 <7 <7 <7
I know this house, I tell you
<7 <7 <7 <7 <8 -8
There’s nothing here for you
<8 <7 <7 <7 <7 <8 -8
Just the old man and the girl
<-6 <7 -7 6 6 -7 <7
They live ordinary lives
10 <-9 <9 <-8 10 <-9 <9 <-8
Don’t interfere, you’ve got some gall
<8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 -7 <7
Take care, young miss, you’ve got a lot to say
10 <-9 <9 <-8 10 <-9 <9 <-8
She’s going soft, happens to all
<8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 -7 <7
Go home, Ponine, go home, you’re in the way
10 <-9 <9 <-8 10 <-9 <9 <-8 <8 <-8
I’m gonna scream, I’m gonna warn them here
<8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 <8 <-8 -7 <7
One little scream and you’ll regret it for a year
<-5 <-5 <-5 <-5 <-5 <-5 <-5 <-6 <-6 <-6 <-6
What a palaver, what an absolute treat
<-6 <-6 <-6 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-7 <-9 <-9 <-9 <-9
To see a cat and its father pick a bone in the street
-10 <-10 -10 <-9 <-9 <-9
Not a sound out of you
<-5 -6 <-6 -6 <-6 -6 <-5 -6 <-6 -6 <-6 -6 <-5
Well I told you I’d do it, I told you I’d do it
<9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9
You wait, my girl, you’ll rue this night
<9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9
I’ll make you scream, you’ll scream all right
<9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9
Leave her to me, don’t wait around
<9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9
Make for the sewers, get underground
<9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9
It was your cry sent them away
<9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9 <9 <-9
Once more, Ponine, saving the day
<-10 <-10 <-10 <-9 <-10 <-10 <-10 <-9
Dearest Cosette, my friend Ponine
<-10 <-10 <-10 <-9 <-10 <-10 <-10 <-9
Brought me to you, showed me the way
<-10 <-10 <-10 <-9 <-10 <-10 <-10 <-9 <-9 <-10 <11 <-9
Someone is near, let’s not be seen, somebody’s here
<-5 -7 <-5 <7 <-5 -7 <-5 <7 <-5 -7 <7
My God, Cosette, I heard a cry in the dark
<-5 -7 <-5 -7 <7 <-6 6 <-5 5 -4 -3 <3
I heard the shout of angry voices in the street
<7 7 -6 <-5 -6 7 <7 7
That was my cry you heard, Papa
8 <-7 <7 7 <7 <-7 8 <-7
I was afraid of what they’d do
8 <8 8 <-7 <7 <-7 8 <7 <-5
They ran away when they heard my cry
-6 7 <7 7 <7 7 <7 7 <7 7
Cosette, my child, what will become of you
9 -9 <-9 -9 8 8 -8 8
Three men I saw beyond the wall
9 -9 <-9 -9 8 <-7 <7 7
Three men in shadow moving fast
-6 7 <7 7 8 -9 <-9 9
This is a warning to us all
-6 7 <7 7 -6 <-5 -5 5
These are the shadows of the past
<-5 -7 <-5 <7 <-5 -7 <-5 <7 <-5 -7 <7
Must be Javert, he’s found my cover at last
<-5 -7 <7 <-6 6 <-5 5 -4 -3 <3 -4 <-6 -6
I’ve got to get Cosette away before they return
-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 -6 <7
We must get away from shadows that will never let us be
-6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 -6 <7 -8
Tomorrow to Calais, and then a ship across the sea
7 7 7 7 7 7 <-7 -7 7 7 7 7
Hurry Cosette, prepare to leave and say no more
7 7 7 <-7 8 7
Tomorrow we’ll away
<7 <7 <7 <7 <7 <-7 -8 <-7 <7 <7 <7 <7
Hurry Cosette, it’s time to close another door
<7 <7 <7 -8 <8 <7
And live another day
