Hurricane Acordes

[Intro]
Am C D Am  x2
 
[Verse]
                    C              D                   Am
Thirty miles on the Gulf Stream, I hear the south wind moan
                      C              D                    Am
The bridge is gettin' lower, all the shrimp boats comin' home
                        C        D                Am
The old man down in the Quarter, slowly turns his head
                     C                   D                 Am
Takes a sip from his whiskey bottle, and, this is what he said
 
[Chorus 1]
                              C
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
     D                    Am
Underneath the Louisiana moon
                             C
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
     D                  E
They come around every June
    Am                  C
The high black water, a devil's daughter
      D                            Am
She's hard, she's cold, and she's mean
                           C
But, nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
   D               Am
To wash away New Orleans
 
[Verse]
                        C           D               Am
A man came down from Chicago, gonna set that levee right
                                   C
He said, it needs to be at least a-three feet higher
      D                   Am
Won't make it through the night
                             C                        D              Am
But, the old man down in the Quarter, said, don't you listen to that boy
                         C                     D           Am
The water be down by the mornin', and he'll be back to Illinois
 
[Chorus 1]
                              C
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
     D                    Am
Underneath the Louisiana moon
                             C
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
     D                  E
They come around every June
    Am                  C
The high black water, a devil's daughter
      D                           Am
She's hard, she's cold, and she's mean
                           C
But, nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
   D               Am
To wash away New Orleans

N.C.
I was born in the rain on the Pontchartrain
Underneath the Louisiana moon
I don't mind the strain of a hurricane
They come around every June
    Am                  C
The high black water, a devil's daughter
      D                           Am
She's hard, she's cold, and she's mean
                            C
But, nobody taught her, it takes a lot of water
   D               Am
To wash away New Orleans

Underneath the Louisiana moon
