[Verse 1]
Am7 Fsus2
Standin' in the corner
B7 E F13
of Toulouse and Dauphine
E7b13 Am7 Am7
Waitin' on Marie-On-dine
Am9
I'm tryin' to place a tune
Fsus2 B7 B7 F13
Under a Louisiana moonbeam
E7b13 Am7 Am7
On the planet of New Orleans
[Verse 2]
Am7 Fsus2
In a bar they call the saturn
B7 E7 F13
And in her eyes of green
E7b13 Am9 Am9
And somethin' that she said in a dream
Am9 Fsus2
Inside of my suit I got my mojo root
B7 B7 F13
And a true love figurine
E7b13 Am7 Am7
For the planet of New Orleans
[Chorus]
Am9 Am9
New Orleans
E7 E7 E7
With other life upon it
E7 Am7 Am7
And everythin' that's shakin' in between
Am9 Am9
If you should ever land upon it
E7 E7
You better know what's on it
F13 E7b13 Am7 Am7 Am7 Am7
The planet of New Orleans
[Verse 3]
Am7 Fsus2
Now I'm tryin' to find my way
B7 E7 F13
Through the rain and the steam
E7b13 Am9 E7#9
I'm lookin' straight ahead through the screen
Am7 Fsus2
And then I heard her say
B7 B7
Somethin' in the limousine
F13 E7b13 Am7
'bout taking a ride across the planet of New Orleans
[Solo]

[Verse 4]
Am7
If she was an ace
Fsus2
And I was just a jack
B7 E7 F13
And the cards were never seen
E7b13 Am9 E7#9
We could have been the king and the queen
Am9 Am7/G Fsus2
But she took me back to her courtyard
B7 B7
Where magnolia perfume screams
F13
Behind the gates and the granite
E7b13 Am7
Of the planet of New Orleans
[Chorus]
Am9
New Orleans
E7
With other life upon it
E7 Am7
And everythin' that's shakin' in between
