[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
Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning
N.C.
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]
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
Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning
G
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New Orleans

G Em7

[Bridge]
Dsus/F#
I guess our good times have rolled away
Cadd9
Well, laissez les bons temps rouler

[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
Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning

[Final Chorus]
G
Yeah, I'm leaving New Orleans

There's too much of you in this town
Em7
Your memory is like moss in the trees
N.C.
Every corner it's just hanging around
Dsus/F#
Well, The Big Easy ain't so easy
Cadd9
Hard to say it but baby come morning
G
I'll be rolling like the Mississippi leaving New Orleans

[Outro]
Em7
Yeah I'm leaving New Orleans
G
Goodbye New Orleans
Em7
I'm leaving New Orleans
