Verse 1: 
D       Em                G#        G     D   
So long Rayne, Louisiana, never see me no more. 
D                       Em          
Hundred dollars, thirty days in the slammer, 
F          G        D   
I'd rather hit the road.  
D       Em             G#        G        D 
I found I'm goin crazy everyday here the same. 
             Em                    F      G        D 
I'm bound to go to the city where nobody knows my name. 


Break 1: 
Em                  D/F#                     G 
How many days can I walk this road from the levee 
             Em                           D/F# 
To the farm? Wake up in the moring in the same old 
                 G                   Gm 
Place. Only the leavin' is left and gone. 

Repeat Intro

D       Em               G#             G        D 
So long ol' New Orleans, nothing but a waste of time. 
            Em                    F     G        D 
Hot nights down in the quarter, took me my last dime. 
                 Em                  G#           G 
Well I count the waves in the water just like an old 
      D               Em                  F         G 
Drunk bum. Deep down Mississippi river, where's it all  
      D 
Come from? 


Break 2: 
Em                     D/F#                   G 
How many days can you spend in the shadows, hidin' from 
          Em                      D/F#                 G 
The sun? Waitin' for the night to lay your money on a point 
            Gm 
That never comes. 

Repeat Intro 2x's 

Verse 3: 
D       Em             G#             G        D   Run #2 
So long New York City, my dreams are dead and gone. 
          Em                 F          G      D 
No heart, no damn pity, I believe I'm headed home. 
          Em                 G#        G         D 
One time before I'm leavin' I'm gonna roll them dice. 
                 Em                 F       G      D 
If it comes in I got no worries, I lose I lose my life. 

Break 3: 
Em                   D/F#                       G 
How many days can I spend in the middle of the black 
                    Em               D/F#  
Concrete and cars? Been so cruel and care so little  
        G                  Gm  
'Bout a man that's come so far. 

Repeat Intro
