[Intro]
G Em7 G Em7


[Verse 1]
G
I'll miss the Quarter, the Magnolias
 and the Ponchartrain
Cadd9
And the French Market on a Saturday

I'll miss the feel of this place
G
I'll miss the bayou sunrise

The Mardi Gras and the Second Lines
Cadd9
Bourbon jazz, sidewalk kids

With bottlecap taps, dancing for 
tips


[Chorus]
G
But I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town
Em7
Your memory is like moss in the 
trees

Every corner it's just hanging 
around
Dsus/F#
Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy
                             Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning
 N.C.
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi
 leaving New Orleans


[Interlude]
G


Continues after the ad
[Verse 2]
G
I like highways

So maybe A  is the place for me
Cadd9
If I point these wheels toward the 
Hollywood sign

All those miles can clear my mind
G
Or I could watch a horse race on 
some bluegrass

Where Bourbon's made
Cadd9
Catch some rays in the Sunshine 
State

Hit Seattle if I need a little rain


[Chorus]
        G
But I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town
Em7
Your memory is like moss in the 
trees

Every corner it's just hanging 
around
Dsus/F#
Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy
                             Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi
             G
 leaving New Orleans

G Em7


[Bridge]
Dsus/F#
I guess our good times have rolled 
away
Cadd9
Well, laissez les bons temps rouler


[Chorus]
      G
But I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town
Em7
Your memory is like moss in the 
trees

Every corner it's just hanging 
around
Dsus/F#
Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy
                             Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning


[Final Chorus]
       G
Yeah, I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town
Em7
Your memory is like moss in the 
trees
             N.C.
Every corner it's just hanging 
around
Dsus/F#
Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy
                             Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi
             G
 leaving New Orleans


[Other]
                           Em7
Yeah I'm leaving New Orleans
                 G
Goodbye New Orleans
Em7
I'm leaving New Orleans
