[Intro]
Em Em B C
[Verse 1]
Em
Well I've been living in sin for about a month
Something turns me round it's something that I just
B
Can't understand the way I behave
C
Some people you can never save
Em
On my right hand I've got a girl on my ear
G Em
And in my left hand I'm throwing back a beer
B
What can I say? Of me you steer clear
C
When I driving down on Bourbon Street yeah
[Pre-Chorus]
Am Em
Every night we through this little soiree
Am B
Gonna turn her head until she's mine all mine
Am Em
Every night I breed a new disaster
B
I might be right I might be wrong
Try to get away and I will bring you right along so
[Chorus]
Em
Sit back have a seat
Sometimes salty sometimes sweet
B
Hard to swallow but fun to eat
G
You ain't never leaving Bourbon Street oh come on!
[Verse 2]
Em Em B Am
Em
When I walk the street people step aside
Twirling my cane and smiling wide
B
Some would say I'm a carnal slave
Em
I put my hands on what I crave
Em
I'm the mayor of this crazy town
Where the queens will party with the clown
B
Try to swim with me and you're bound to drown
C
Throw you a line while you're going down c'mon!
[Verse 3]
Em Em B Am
Em
Yeah I know this street and I own this crowd
C B
And my only companion is a lightning cloud
Em
I seem real nice and easy to trust
B
Ashes to ashes and dust to dust
G
I'm gonna lead you a path to self destruct
C
On this crazy train that I conduct
[Pre-Chorus]
Em
And it's a 1! 2! 3! 4!
Am Em
Becoz every night we throw this little soiree
Am B
I'm gonna turn her head until she's mine all mine
Am Em
Every night I breed a new disaster
B
I might be right I might be wrong
Try to get away and I will bring you right along so
[Chorus]
Em
Sit back have a seat
Sometimes salty sometimes sweet
B
Hard to swallow but fun to eat
Em
You ain't never leaving Bourbon Street come on!
