New Orleans

G Em C D

[Verse]
G
Woke up this morning 60 miles from new Orleans
          Em
And I Could not find my baby My wallet or blue jeans
        C
And all I got is what I believe
           D                               G
And a shoe for kickin rocks out by the road

             G
Well ive seen you twice before but I will not see you again
                 Em
I know its you that left me stranded Out in no where louisian
                  C
From the swamp out by the highway
                  D                   G
To the other side of Houston here I go

[Chorus]
        C               G
Oh babe why cant you see
D                                      Em
Youre the only thing as heartless as me
            C                      G
That I ever met ever since you left
                        D      C  Bm Am  G
The only place Id never leave

[Verse]
G
Well another thing ill never do is love you like I did
                Em
I left the lights on for you mama you told me I was a kid
        C
How hell did you have the heart
        D                      G
To never let me know I was alone

            G
I drove all the way to texas with us dancing in my head
            Em
Just preachin to the window all the things I never said
        C
I got two more waitin on me
                D                             G
You aint nothing like ive ever seen back home

[Chorus]
        C               G
Oh babe why cant you see
D                                      Em
Youre the only thing as heartless as me
            C                      G
That I ever met ever since you left
                        D      C  Bm Am  G
The only place Id never leave

[Verse]
            G
Well im out here on the edge of town and there aint no lookin back
        Em
Bout 80 pages to the wind blowin white smoke from the stacks
              C
You can find me on the front porch
           D                                G
Of the A frame out in big hill getting high

[Chorus]
        C               G
Oh babe why cant you see
D                                      Em
Youre the only thing as heartless as me
            C                      G
That I ever met ever since you left
                        D      C  Bm Am  G
The only place Id never leave
