Crescent City Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]Every[Dm] body[G]'s had[C] a few
Now they're talking about
[G]who knows who
I'm going back to the Cres[Am]cent City
[F]Where everything's still [G]the same
This town has said what it [C]has to say
Now I'm after that [G]back highway
And the longest [Am]bridge
I've ever [F]crossed
Over Pontchartrain
[G]

[Verse 2]
Tous les temps [Dm]en temps
That's what we [G]say
We used [Dm]to dance
The night [G]away
Me and my [Dm]sister
Me and my [G]brother
We used to [Dm]walk
Down by the river
[G]

[Verse 3]
Mama lives in [C]Mandeville
I can hardly [G]wait until
I can hear [Am]my Zydeco
And lais[F]sez les bons [G]temps rouler
And take rides [C]in open cars
My brother knows where
the [G]best bars are
Let's see how [Am]these blues'll do
In the [F]town where the good times stay
[G]

[Verse 4]
Tous les temps en [Dm]temps
That's what [G]we say
We used to [Dm]dance
The night [G]away
Me and my [Dm]sister
Me and my [G]brother
We used to [Dm]walk

[Outro 1]
Down by the river
