         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
