Capo 2
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
Hard to say it but baby come [Cadd9]morning
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New Orleans
Interlude
[G]
Verse 2
[G]I like highways
So maybe LA 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
But I'm [G]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
Hard to say it but baby come [Cadd9]morning
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New [G]Orleans
[G] [Em7]
Bridge
Dsus/F#
I guess our good times have rolled away
[Cadd9]Well, laissez les bons temps rouler
Chorus
But I'[G]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
Hard to say it but baby come [Cadd9]morning
Final Chorus
Yeah, I[G]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
Hard to say it but baby come [Cadd9]morning
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New [G]Orleans
Outro
Yeah I'm leaving New Orlean[Em7]Orleans
Goodbye New Orlea[G]Orleans
[Em7]I'm leaving New Orleans
