Queen Of New Orleans

• Bm

 
Intro: Bm A E (4x) 


         Bm                   A 
She said baby our love's just like your songs 
    E                       
The beat ain't bad but the words are all wrong 
             Bm                         A 
It's time to pack my bags, it's time to just move on 
   E                                Bm  A   
She sang, Johnny, I'm gone, gone, gone 
                 E     G     A 
And she's gone 

Bm                         A 
Me and Leigh met summer of '95 
E                            
In a burgundy dress lookin' finer than French wine 
Bm                 A 
A Cajun Queen with another side 
E                                              Bm  A   
She was a schoolboy's dream, I was out my mind 
                     E 
She was lookin' fine 

G 
  She said "You want to drive me home" 
A 
  But what I didn't know...
