[Em]Down in New Orleans
I went to save my [D]life
[D]But I saw it passing by
With [G]all [D]my [Em]lies
[Em]I went in search for money
I went in search for [D]fame
[D]But it always got me through
My [G]whole [D]damn’ [Em]pain
Chorus:
[Em]Many people ask me why
I still walk [D]alone
[Em]And I tell them some are destined
[G]Never [D]to find [Em]home
[Em]All I asked was freedom
But all I got was [D]chains
And I had to walk with them
To [G]no [D]man’s [Em]land
[Em]All I asked was freedom
But all I got was [D]chains
[D]And I had to walk with them
To [G]no [D]man’s [Em]land
Chorus:
[Em]Many people ask me why
I still walk [D]alone
[Em]And I tell them some are destined
[G]Never [D]to find [Em]home
Outro:
[Em]Down in New Orleans
I went to save my [D]life
But I saw it passing by
With [G]all [D]my [Em]lies
