(G major) (A minor) (G major) (C major) (G major)
I truly need,
a year down in New Orleans,

Verse 2
(G major)
I remember clover,
in the fields south of New Orleans
(A minor) And we ran so (G major) blindly through (C major) the fields
of summer cane (G major)
Now when I'm lonely,
I send my heart down to New Orleans
(C major) To chase my (G major) memories
(C major) alone down (D major) through my (G major) dreams
