Вступление
[Intro]
C E7
The shallow water shimmers in the street light
Am C
The neon signs can't escape the eye
C E7 Am
The smell of fish and spice, a smell of which can mix so nice
F G C
So take me back here before I die
F C F C
And the greatest infection, is that of affection
F C G7
And I wouldn't have it any other way
C E7 Am F C G C
But what can I say
[Verse 1]
C E7 Am
Circumstance had brought her to the city
F C G
She was left behind to try and find a cheap hotel to sleep at night
C E7 Am
Well hard times fell and she took to strippin'
F G
Just a 19 year old girl in the grasps of middle aged married men
F C F C
And the Bourbon Street bullhorn boys bellowed boasts of beautiful girls
F C G G7
Who dance behind black curtains in the night
F C F C
And oh, how that stigma follows, just another slut on drugs
F C G G7
And through the drunken slander, she held her pride
[Chorus]
C E7 Am
And I'll come back to New Orleans
F G
And I hope to find that you're still waiting there for me
C E7 Am
'Cause I'll be back in New Orleans
F G C E7 Am F C G C
If you still want me there
[Verse 2]
C E7 Am
She'd only been two weeks in the city
F C G
It'd only been two nights for me
C E7 Am
And was it vacation high? It felt so real when we said goodbye
F G
And I hope this feeling never fades
F C F C
And the greatest infection is that of affection
F C G7
And I wouldn't have it any other way
F C F C
In a city full of devils, I found an angel there
F C G G7
And fell in love with a stripper but I never saw her dance
[Chorus]
C E7 Am
And I'll come back to New Orleans
F G
And I hope to find that you're still waiting there for me
C E7 Am
'Cause I'll be back in New Orleans
F G C E7 Am F C G C
If you still want me there
[Outro]
C E7
And the shallow water shimmers in the street light
Am C
The neon signs can't escape the eye
C E7 Am
And the city sleeps, but I keep on stirring
F G C
So take me back here before I die
