Verse 1
miles on the Gulf (C major) Stream
I (D major) hear the south wind moan (A major)
The bridge is (A minor) getting lower
(C major) The (D major) shrimp boat's coming home (A minor)
The old man down in the corner (C major)
Slowly (D major) turns his head (A minor)
Takes a sip from (C major) his whiskey bottle
And (D major) this is what he said
(A major) I (A minor) was born in the rain on
a (C major) box of train
Underneath (D major) the Louisiana moon (A major)
(A minor) I don't mind the strain of a (C major) hurricane
They (D major) come around every Jun (E major) e
The (A major) high black water,
a (C major) devil's daughter
She's (D major) hard, she's cold,
and she's mean (A minor)
But (A major) nobody taught her
It (G major) takes a lot of water
To (D major) wash away New Orleans (A minor)
A man came down from Chica (C major) go
He gonna (D major) set that levee right
(A major) He says, (A minor) it needs to be
at least (C major) three feet higher
It (D major) won't make it through the night
(A major) But the old man (A minor) down in the corner (C major)
He said, (D major) don't you listen to that boy (A minor)
The water'll be down by the (C major) morning
And he'll be (D major) back to Illinois (A major)
I was (A minor) born in the rain on a
(C major) pocket train
Underneath (D major) the Louisiana moon (A minor)
I don't mind the strain of a (C major) hurricane
They (D major) come around every Jun (E major) e
The (A minor) high black water, (C major) devil's daughter
She's (D major) hard, she's cold and she's mean (A minor)
But (A major) nobody taught her
it (G major) takes a lot of water
To (D major) wash away New Orleans (A major)
(Asus4) (C major) (D major) (A minor) (Asus4)
(C major) So (D major) (E major) (A minor) (C major) (D major) (A major) (Asus4) (A minor)
(C major) (D major) (A major)
(Asus4) (A minor) Thirty miles on the Gulf (C major) Stream,
I (A minor) hear the south wind moan
The bridge is getting lower,
(C major) the (D major) shrimp boat's coming home
(A major) The old man (A minor) down in the corner (C major) ,
(D major) slowly turns his head (A major)
Takes (A minor) a drink from his (C major) whiskey bottle and
(D major) This is what he (A major) said (A minor)
(A major) I (A minor) was born in the rain on
the (D major) parts of train
Underneath the Louisiana moon (A minor)
Don't (D major) mind the strain of a (G major) hurricane
They (D major) come around every June (E major)
High (A major) black water, (C major) devil's daughter
She's (D major) hot, she's cold and she's mean
(A minor) But (A major) nobody taught her,
it (G major) takes a lot of water
To (D major) wash away a New Orleans (Asus4) (A major)
I was born in (A minor) the rain on a
(C major) monster train
Underneath (D major) the Louisiana moon (A major)
(Asus4) I (A minor) don't mind the
strain of a (C major) hurricane
They (D major) come around every Jun (E major) e
The (A major) high black (A minor) wa ter,
the (C major) devil's daughter
She's (D major) hot, she's cold and she means
(A minor) But nobody taught her
it (G major) takes a lot of water
To (D major) wash away New Orleans (A minor)
Nobody taught (A major) her
it (G major) takes a lot of water
To (D major) wash away new wrongs
