(Gm6 baritone chordGm6)  (A7 baritone chordA7)  (Dm baritone chordDm)
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
There's a moon over Bourbon Street tonight
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I've no choice but to follow that call
(Dm6 baritone chordDm6) (E7 baritone chordE7) (Bb baritone chordBb) (A7 baritone chordA7)
The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I pray everyday to be strong
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
For I know what I do must be wrong

Chorus:
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm) (F baritone chordF)(Gm baritone chordGm)(A7 baritone chordA7)
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street
(Dm baritone chordDm) (F baritone chordF)(Gm baritone chordGm)(A7 baritone chordA7) x3

(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
It was many years ago that I became what I am
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
Now I can never show my face at noon
(Dm6 baritone chordDm6) (E7 baritone chordE7) (Bb baritone chordBb) (A7 baritone chordA7)
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest

Chorus
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
She walks everyday through the streets of New Orleans
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
She's innocent and young, from a family of means
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I have stood many times outside her window at night
(Dm6 baritone chordDm6) (E7 baritone chordE7) (Bb baritone chordBb) (A7 baritone chordA7)
To struggle with my instinct in the pale moonlight
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
How could I be this way when I pray to God above?
(Gm6 baritone chordGm6) (A7 baritone chordA7) (Dm baritone chordDm)
I must love what I destroy and destroy the thing I love

Chorus
