Em
Goin against the grain, I'm walkin' all alone into a hurricane, only way to get home
              Am                     Em                  Am                   B
No gettin' a- round it, I made up my mind, I'm movin' on faith, I'm travelin' blind

[Chorus]
               Em
I'm walkin' to New Orleans, walkin' to New Orleans
I'm walkin' to New Orleans, on judgement day

            Em
Put my head down, plow into the wind, it's a whole lotta miles to the city of sin
            Am                     Em                Am                    B
I might not make it, I know that's true, but I don't know, nothin' else to do

[Chorus]

[Instrumental]
Em x 4 bars

[Verse]
                 Em
Friends tried to tell me, that I was gonna die, cops tried to stop me, but I blew right on by
                Am                          Em           Am                           B
'Cuz the ones I love, are waitin' there for me and with- out them, what would my life be

[Chorus]

[Instrumental]
Em  Em  Em  Em  Em  Em  Em  Em      
Am Am Em Em Am Am B B                     
Em Em Em Em
       
            Em
Now I can't think, I can only feel, time's stopped movin', this don't seem real
           Am                  Em                         Am                      Em
If I don't get there, I'll die tryin' and I'll haunt this highway, til the end of time

[Chorus]
             Em     Em          Em    Em Em Em Em6
On judgement day,   judgement   day
