Am7Am7          Fmaj7Fmaj7
Standin' in the corner
B7B7          Am7Am7
 Of Toulouse and Dauphine
DmDm E7E7         Am7Am7
  Waitin' on Marie-Ondine
  Am7Am7
I'm tryin' to place a tune
      Fmaj7Fmaj7   B7B7
Under a Louisiana moonbeam
DmDm    E7E7       A minorAm
 On the planet of New Orleans

   Am7Am7           Fmaj7Fmaj7
In a bar they call The Saturn
B7B7          E MajorE
 And in her eyes of green
DmDm  E7E7              Am7Am7
 And somethin' that she said in a dream
 Am7Am7           Fmaj7Fmaj7
Inside of my suit I got my mojo root
   B7B7
And a true love figurine
DmDm    E7E7       A minorAm
 For the planet of New Orleans

Chorus:

 Am7Am7     E7E7
 New Orleans - With other life upon it
                   A minorAm
 And everythin' that's shakin' in between
 Am7Am7
 If you should ever land upon it
 E7E7
  You better know what's on it
 DmDm  E7E7       A minorAm
  The planet of New Orleans


    Am7Am7          Fmaj7Fmaj7
Now I'm tryin' to find my way
B7B7             E MajorE
 Through the rain and the steam
DmDm  E7E7                 Am7Am7
 I'm lookin' straight ahead through the screen
  Am7Am7          Fmaj7Fmaj7
And then I heard her say
B7B7
Somethin' in the limousine
   DmDm            E7E7       Am7Am7
'bout taking a ride across the planet of New Orleans

Instr.: Am7Am7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 B7B7 E7E7 DmDm E7E7 Am7Am7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 B7B7 DmDm E7E7 -->2x
    Am7Am7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 Am7Am7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 E minor 7Em7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 E minor 7Em7


  Am7Am7
If she was an ace
  Fmaj7Fmaj7
And I was just a jack
    B7B7         E MajorE
And the cards were never seen
DmDm  E7E7                 Am7Am7
 We could have been the king and the queen
    Am7Am7       Fmaj7Fmaj7
But she took me back to her courtyard
    B7B7
Where magnolia perfume screams
      DmDm
Behind the gates and the granites
    E7E7       A minorAm
Of the planet of New Orleans


Chorus twice


Instr.: Am7Am7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 B7B7 E MajorE DmDm E7E7 Am7Am7


    Am7Am7 Fmaj7Fmaj7 A#A# E7E7 DmDm E7E7  ---> repeate to fade
