                  I WOKE UP IN NEW ORLEANS
                           LUCERO


INTRO:
F   F   C   Bb

VERSE:
   Dm
I couldn't out drink anyone for nothing
         F
But I'd act like it 'til I puked or passed out
       C
Oooh, most nights I could get away with something
  Bb
These days I don't seem to stand so proud


VBERSE:
    Dm
She asked me why can't I just stop drinking
 F
Come on babe, we both know it's too late
           C
Oooh, for either one of us to still be thinking
 Bb
That I could live my life some other way


CHORUS:
   Am            Dm
I woke up in New Orleans
G                            Bb
Angry at the world and all alone
   Am              Dm
I want you to know darling
   C                                Bb   Dm Bb
I love you and I want to come back home


VERSE:
        Dm
It was less than graceful ladies I've said we'll see
       F
I've drank with scoundrels, tramps and god damn fools
          C
Oooh, but I don't think that much care if it kills me
 Bb
Living life the man's just passing through


VERSE:
     Dm
The last few years were stitched with floss and pipe dreams
    F
A quilt of poor intentions raveled out
          C
Oooh, but it was you who took me in and saved me
               Bb
It seems I've paid you back with slack and broken vows


CHORUS:
      Am             Dm
And I woke up in New Orleans
G                            Bb
Angry at the world and all alone
   Am              Dm
I want you to know darling
   C                                Bb   Dm Bb
I love you and I want to come back home


BREAK:
   F                       Dm
I know it should have been easy
      F                             Dm
It's too late to change the path I chose
      Gm        Am        Bb
This might not count for nothing
      Gm  Bb      F    Dm    F    C    Bb
Just want you to know


CHORUS:
   Am            Dm
I woke up in New Orleans
G                            Bb
Angry at the world and all alone
   Am              Dm
I want you to know darling
   C                                Bb
I love you and I want to come back home
   C                                Bb  Gm Am Bb   Gm Am Bb
I love you and I want to come back home
