Intro
A minorAm C minorCm DmDm A minorAm (2X)

Verse 1
A minorAm        C minorCm      DmDm           A minorAm
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream I hear the South wind moan
A minorAm          C minorCm   DmDm           A minorAm
The bridges getting lower, shrimp boats coming home
A minorAm          C minorCm    DmDm        A minorAm
The old man down in the Quarter slowly turns his head
A minorAm          C minorCm         DmDm       A minorAm
Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle and this is what he said

Chorus
 A minorAm           C minorCm         DmDm           A minorAm
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain Underneath the Louisiana Moon
A minorAm          C minorCm        DmDm            E minorEm
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane, they come around every June
A minorAm          C minorCm       DmDm              A minorAm
High black water, a devils daughter, shes hard, shes cold, and shes mean
A minorAm           G minorGm       DmDm             A minorAm
But nobody taught her it takes a lot of water, to wash away New Orleans

Man came down from Chicago, he gonna set that levee right
A minorAm               C minorCm        DmDm             A minorAm
He says It needs to be at least three feet higher, it won't make it through the night.
A minorAm                C minorCm      DmDm         A minorAm
But the old man down in the Quarter, he said don't you listen to that boy
A minorAm             C minorCm     DmDm         A minorAm
The water be down by the morning, and he'll be back to Illinois
Chorus
