Hey you, what are you doing in New Orleans ?

A*     Amaj7*    Dmaj7* Dmaj7* D6D6
I took a train with my banjo
A*     Amaj7*     Dmaj7* Dmaj7*  D6D6
Or maybe a plain, Terminal 0
A*     Amaj7* Dmaj7*     Dmaj7*     D6D6
I was all alone at Jackson square strumming sitting here
A*     Amaj7*         Dmaj7*  Dmaj7*  D6D6
Until someone came out from nowhere

Pre-Chorus 1:

Bm7Bm7     Dsus2Dsus2        A augmentedA

     E*       Bm7Bm7
What a nice Jazzman can do

Let’s jamming and singing the Blues

Big Easy’s calling

A*      Amaj7*      Dmaj7*  Dmaj7*  D6D6
We spent our time walking the city
A*       Amaj7*         Dmaj7*  Dmaj7*  D6D6
Played in jazz clubs just like in the fifty’s
A*        Amaj7*     Dmaj7*      Dmaj7*    D6D6
Big smiles in the crowd, we were dancing on, until my friend skat alone
A*   Amaj7*     Dmaj7* Dmaj7*  D6D6
Spi di doo wap oh na na
