New Orleans
guitar chords lyrics
CAPO 1
C
Well I went south
F C
With a case of survival
C
To amend my heart
G C
that's paper thin
C
You see I felt her words
F C
and her images filed
Am
I'm gonna carry my
G C
heart to New Orleans
C
I have no home to go
F C
So I wander awhile
C
From coast to coast
G C
From sin to sin
C
From the coldest shores
F C
To the warmest islands
Am
Been around the world
G C
Back to New Orleans
G
Well she's got pride
F C
Like a million lions
G
she's got a scar
F C
on her velvet face
F
she's got a smile
C
like a newborn child
Am
she's gotta walk,
G C
a Stoic Grace
C
I never slept that night
F C
Until my arrival
C G C
I romanticized a long embrace
C
You see I lost my tongue
F C
and burned my Bible
Am
But made it back home
G C
to New Orleans
G
Well she's got pride
F C
Like a million lions
G
she's got a scar
F C
on her velvet face
F
she's got a smile
C
like a newborn child
Am
she's gotta walk,
G C
a Stoic Grace
C
Well I held my breath
and I swam for miles
Am
When all was lost
G C
and hell took place
C
You see it rained all night
F C
and the city she flooded
G
It rained all night
C
in New Orleans
G
Yeah it rained all
F C
night in New Orleans
G
Yeah it rained all
Am C
night in New Orleans
Am
Yeah it rained all
G C F Am G C
night in New Orleans
