Cowboy Mouth is a rock band based in New Orleans, Louisiana, taking their name from the title of a Sam Shepard play which got the term from a Bob Dylan song. The nucleus of the band, Fred Leblanc (Drums, Vocals) and John Thomas Griffith (Guitar, Vocals), formed in the early 1990s, and they climbed the ladder from an opening act living in a van to a powerhouse live act that has been called "a religious experience" by more than one music journalist.

"Louisiana Lowdown" by Cowboy Mouth >From the MCA album "Are You with Me?" Previously from the Monkey Hill album "Mouthin' Off (Live+More)" (Also from Sanchez's solo album "Jet Black And Jealous") Written by Paul Sanchez, sung by Fred LeBlanc (previously by Sanchez) --------------------------------------------------------------------- D#=x68886 C#=x46664 G#=466544 A#=688766 Gm=355333 Cm=335543
The main RIFF used throughout the song is: D#D#C#C#C#C#D#D#C#C#C#D# The timing is difficult to show on this, but if you listen to the intro you can figure it out. Basically play a few D#'s, then C#'s, then almost repeat the pattern but quickly come back for a D# instead of the last C#.
The little filler notes (FILL) are just a little "tickling" of the first two strings (e and B) held at the 8th fret (just mash down your third finger which should be on the 8th fret from playing the D# anyway).
INTRO: RIFF
VERSES: D# FILL Well my eyelids said four-thirty D# FILL and the radio clock said six G#A# RIFF and I was thinking up a reasonable excuse D# FILL I might have slept til yesterday D# FILL but in the shape I'm in G#A# RIFF what's twenty-four hours more or less to lose
CHORUS: GmCm I've burned up letters and I've burned up souvenirs GmCm And left no traces Lord that I was ever here D#G#A# RIFF And I won't be Louisiana lowdown and blue
BRIDGE: A#D# FILL I saw a stranger smiling at me yesterday A#D# FILL And it scared me almost half to death A#D# FILL I wanted to hide I wanted to run away from her A# RIFF Instead I closed my eyes and she wasn't there
