[Intro]
2 bar drums lead in, then guitar starts on beat 2
A  A
A  A  A  A
F#m F#m
A  A  A  A
[Verse 1]
A
Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by
A pirogue pole or your natural soul
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide
F#m
Beer joint lights come on
             A
And then the crowd starts rollin' in
[Chorus]
                    A
Pretty soon you got stars on the water
You got stars on the water
        F#m
You got stars on the water
         A
When it rains
[Verse 2]
A
Beaumont to Biloxi, sea breeze at your door
Gypsy rains, dang hurricanes
White silver sandy shores
F#m
Blue light lounge is shinin'
A
Way out on the pier
[Chorus]
                        A
Makes it look just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
          F#m
Just like stars on the water
         A
When it rains
[Guitar Solo]
A  A  A  A
A  A  A  A
F#m F#m A  A
A  A  A  A
[Verse 3]
          A
When it's midnight down in Mobile
Shinin' moonbeams on the bay
They come from miles around to dance the jukebox down
To hear the good time sounds they play
    F#m
And all across the harbor
A
Night life shinin' on
[Chorus]
                         A
Makes you feel just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
          F#m
Just like stars on the water
         A
When it rains
                         A
Makes you feel just like stars on the water
Just like stars on the water
          F#m
Just like stars on the water
        A
When it rains
[Outro]
A  A  A  A
A  A  A  A
A  A  A  A
