[Intro]

[Eponine]
E'Parnasse, what are you doing
ESo far out of our patch?
[Montparnasse]
EThis house, we're going to do it
ERich man, plenty of scratch
EYou remember he's the one
EWho got away the other day
GGot a number on his chest
CmPerhaps a fortune Bput away!E
[Eponine]
EOh Lord, somebody help me!
EDear God, what'll I do?
EHe'll think this is an ambush
EHe'll think I'm in it too!
GbWhat'll I do, what'll I say?
EbI've got to warn them here
BI've got to find a way.

(Thenardier arrives with the rest of his gang.)
[Thenardier]
DbThis is his lair
DbI've seen the old fox around
DbHe keeps himself to himself
DbHe's staying close to the ground
GbI smell profit here!
AbTen years ago
He came and Dbpaid for Cosette
DbI let her go for a song
DbIt's time we settled the debt
GThis'll cost him dear
[Brujon]
AWhat do I care
AWho you should rob
AGive me my share
AFinish the job!
[Thenardier]
AYou shut Gbyour mouth
GGive me your hand
(He notices Eponine but doesn't recognize her.)
[Brujon]
GbWhat have we here?
[Thenardier]
Who is this Dbhussy?
[Babet]
DbIt's your brat Eponine
DbDon't you know your own kid
Why's she hanging Aabout you?
[Thenardier]
'DbPonine, get on home
DbYou're not needed in this
We're enough here Gbwithout you
[Eponine]
DbI know this house
I tell you there's nothing here for Eyou
Just Fmthe old man and the Gbgirl
AThey live ordinary Ablives
[Thenardier]
AbDon't Cminterfere
CmYou've got some gall
CmTake care, young miss,
You've got a lot to Dbsay!
[Brujon]
DbShe's going soft
[Claquesous]
Happens to Cmall
[Montparnasse]
CmGo home, 'Ponine,
Go home, you're in the Abway
[Eponine]
AbI'm gonna scream, DbI'm gonna warn them here.
[Thenardier]
DbOne little scream and you'll regret it for a yearBb.
[Claquesous]
EbWhat a palaver
EbWhat an absolute treat
EbTo watch a cat and it's father
EbPick a bone in the street
[Brujon]
EbNot a Absound out of you!
[Eponine]
AbWell I told you CmI'd do it, Ebtold you I'd do Abit...
(She screams.)
[Thenardier]
BYou wait my girl, you'll rue this night
BI'll make you scream, you'll scream all right
BLeave her to me, don't wait around
BMake for the sewers, go underground!
(The gang scatters.)
[Marius]
AbIt was your cry sent them away
AOnce more 'Ponine saving the day
Dearest Cosette, Emy friend 'Ponine
EbBrought me to you, showed me the way!
EbSomeone is near
EbLet's not be seen
BSomebody's hereEb...A
(Marius leaves quickly as Valjean enters.)
[Valjean]
AMy God, Cosette
AI heard a cry in the dark
AI heard the shout of angry voices in the street.
[Cosette]
FmThat was my cry you heard, EbPapa.
AbI was afraid Cmof Ebwhat they'd do.
DbThey ran away when they Abheard my cry
[Valjean]
AbCosette, Gmy child, what will become of you?
[Cosette]
CmThree men I saw Fmbeyond the Cmwall
CmThree men in shadow Bbmoving Cmfast
[Valjean]
AbThis is a Cmwarning to us all
FmThese are the Gshadows of the Cmpast
AMust be Javert!
AHe's found my cover at last!
AI've got to get Cosette away
Before they Abreturn!
AbWe must get away from shadows
AbThey will never let us be
FmTomorrow to Calais
BbThen a ship across the sea!G
GHurry, Cosette, prepare to leave and say no more
Tomorrow Ebwe'll away!
BHurry, Cosette, it's time to close another door
BAnd live another day!
