C               F                 Am             G
Standin’ here beside this freeway wishing I was high
C                 F                 Am                 G
Wondering why she said she loved me then she said goodbye
    Am              Em              F              G
I’m down to my last dollar in these faded old blue jeans
   C        F         G            C
So adios to Amarillo, hello New Orleans

C                     F                Am                G
Her hair was made of summer sunlight the moon lit in her eyes

Her voice would ride the wind at midnight across the starry skies
     Am               Em                  F           G
Love is blind that’s what they tell me in all those magazines

C                    F                 Am              G
We talked about our lives together we talked about our plans
C                          F             Am                   G
We walked through rain and windy weather across the shifting sands
    Am                  Em              F              G
She took the car that’s how I know this ain’t no crazy dream

I’ll eat my fill of jambalaya and crawfish etouffé
C                F              Am                      G
I’ll drink the Mississippi dry, laissez les bon temps rouler
      Am              Em          F              G
I’ll trade her memory in on one of those Cajun queens
