Аккорды The Hillbilly Thomists - Way Down in New Orleans

[Verse 1]
G
Since Elvis died and Nixon lied
C
We been livin' off Kentucky fried
G
Man on the moon's got nothin' on us
D
'Cause the band drove to Houston in an old school bus
G
Where we played too loud, knocked down the door
C
Breakin' stuff up's what we came here for
G
Mama don't like it and don't understand
D
But you tell her that's an old time band

[Chorus]
G                                        C
I got fire hosed speakin' my mind in California
  G                                D
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
G                               C
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans

[Verse 2]
G
They got the old jazz music and the Dixieland
C
The church choir stompin' and the whole church rockin'
G
Don't believe that the music died
D
'Cause I heard it right here and it's well and alive
G
Sacred Heart Parish, sun shining bright
C
The Lord had mercy, I didn't even fight
G
I got absolution 'cause it works that way
D
Then we all went to dinner, got the etouffee

[Chorus]
G                                        C
I got fire hosed speakin' my mind in California
  G                                D
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
G                               C
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans

[Verse 3]
G
He got the hairshirt on with the scruffy old beard
C
He stares at the sky, looks pretty weird
G
But she broke his heart, he nearly lost his mind
D
Drinking that old brown turpentine
G
He went to the left and he went to the right
C
He heard a preacher man talking and he saw the light
G
Now he talks to God while he's chewing gum
D
That's where we took all the lyrics from

[Chorus]
G                                        C
I got fire hosed speakin' my mind in California
  G                                D
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
G                               C
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans

[Verse 4]
G
Little Timmy Junior put his hand in the socket
C
Now his hair's too long but he just keeps rockin'
G
He left the sticks and he moved to the city
D
Where he got into fights, he wasn't too pretty
G
He lost three teeth on Bourbon street
C
But he knew it was wrong, so he put it in a song
G
If it ends like this with confession and a kiss
D
When the record comes out it'll all be bliss

[Chorus]
G                                        C
I got fire hosed speakin' my mind in California
  G                                D
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
G                               C
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans

[Verse 5]
G
There's fire on the mountain and it burns away
C
We'll all get together on judgment day
G
There'll be a barbecue and an angel band
D
The Mother of God and the Son of Man
G
Now we've been free since the day He died
C
So we're cuttin' off ties with the prince of lies
G
Face the music, preach the truth
D
It's what we came here to do

[Chorus]
G                                        C
I got fire hosed speakin' my mind in California
  G                                D
My heart got broke in Memphis Tennessee
G                               C
I nearly lost my mind in Austin Texas
G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans

G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
G                     D             G
My soul got saved way down in New Orleans
