[D]

[Verse 1]
From [D]somewhere outside
I hear the [G]street vendor [D]cry,
"Filé gumbo"
From my window I see him
[G]Going down the [D]street
And he don't know
That she fell right to [Bm]sleep
In the [D]damp tangled [Bm]sheets so [D]soon
After love in the [A]hot afternoon

[Verse 2]
[Bm]Now the [A]Bourbon Street lady
[G]Sleeps like a [D]baby in the shadows
(In the shadows)
She was [A]new to me, [G]full of mys[D]tery
But now I know (I know)
That she's just a [Bm]girl
And [D]I'm just a [Bm]guy, [D]in a room
Fall in love in the [A]hot after

We got [D]high in the park
This [G]morning and we [D]sat, without talkin'
Then we came back here
In the [G]heat of the [D]day, tired of walkin'

She [D]hummed to her[Bm]self [D]a tune
Of love in the [A]hot after[D]noon
[Bm]Now the

[Verse 4]
[A]Bourbon Street lady
[G]Sleeps like a [D]baby in the shadows
(In the shad[Bm]ows)
She was [A]new to me, [G]full of mys[D]tery
But now I know (I know)
That she's just a [Bm]girl
And [D]I'm just a [Bm]guy, in a [D]room
Fall in love in [A]the hot after
