Verse:

A
Stagger down Bourbon Street in a Jack Daniels haze

D
Two man zydeco band struggles on stage

A
Violent drum machines are raping my ears

D
The bathroom is just too damn far away from here

Chorus:

A           G                      Cmaj9b5/E           A
I'm too far away from you and I'm too close to feelin' blue

A           G                      Cmaj9b5/E           A
I'm too far away from you and I'm too close to fellin' blue

Verse:

A
Drunk businessmen croak out karaoke blues

D
Been traveling too much, paying too many dues

A
There's miles and miles of empty bar

D
Each inch is lined with empty tip jars

Chorus:

A           G                     Cmaj9b5/E            A
I'm too far away from you and I'm too close to fellin' blue

A           G                     Cmaj9b5/E             A
I'm too far away from you and I'm hanging out with some Mardi Gras crue

Rise:
A A# B11 C6

Bridge:

E7
Jazz saxophones pounding my brain

Cmaj9b5/E
Toss back another one of them hurricanes

E7
March up and down this asphalt dance floor

Cmaj9b5/E                      C#7no5{/ch] E5addA#addC  Emaj7  A
Just keep going 'til you just  can't  take         it any more

Verse:

A
Strip club barkers, street side nubetees

D
Frat boys stagger in sloppy arrays

A
Booze assaults my tired brain

D
As we break into a Creole refrain

Chorus:

A           G                     Cmaj9b5/E            A
I'm too far away from you and I'm too close to feelin' blue

A           G                     Cmaj9b5/E         A
I'm too far away from you and I'm stuck down in the bayou
