Sweet Louisiana Sound
By: Billy Pilgrim
This is the first time I have posted to the news group.
I am missing a few lyrics here and might have some wrong,
but I think it is mostly right. I didn't include the intro
but I think it is just a simple variation of the chords in
the song. This song sounds pretty nice "acousticified".
Anyway any corrections/additions are welcome. Enjoy!!!!
E A E
Lookin' out from a hotel room
A E
All alone on a Memphis afternoon
I've been waitin' for
A
this storm to pass
E A B E
Gonna clear a path and you can kiss my ass goodbye
E A E
I walk the streets Where Elvis lived
A
But they ain't never gonna crown the king
E A
And I never felt that broken hearted
E A B E
I left before things ever got started
Chorus:
E A
They got me on a riverboat driftin' down
E A
Oh muddy water get me out of town
E B A E
To that sweet Louisiana sound
E A E
Unerneath a neon light
A
Another ghost down Beal street tonight
E A
I Ain't out to hurt nobody
E A B E
but I played hand I lost all my money
E A
They've got the dogs out after me
E A B E
They're diggin in the trash but there's no scent of me
(Chorus)
E A E
Party boys out on Bourbon streets
A
Sweepin' them young girls right off of their feet
E A E
They got those love tatoos
A
Across their heart
E A B E
They been...................... in Mardi Gras
E A
Turn the jukebox loud as it can go
E A B E
Pack 'em inside this our last show
(Chorus x2)
Driftin Louisana sound
Driftin down sweet Louisiana sound
