        Am7  Fmaj7  Am7  Fmaj7  Em  Fmaj7  Em 


Am7                    Fmaj7
Standin' in the corner
B7                   Am7
  Of Toulouse and Dauphine
Dm  E7                 Am7
    Waitin' on Marie-Ondine
    Am7           
I'm tryin' to place a tune
           Fmaj7      B7
Under a Louisiana moonbeam
Dm       E7              Am
  On the planet of New Orleans

      Am7                     Fmaj7
In a bar they call The Saturn
B7                   E
  And in her eyes of green
Dm    E7                           Am7
  And somethin' that she said in a dream
  Am7                      Fmaj7
Inside of my suit I got my mojo root
      B7
And a true love figurine
Dm        E7              Am
  For the planet of New Orleans


Chorus:

  Am7         E7
  New Orleans - With other life upon it
                                      Am
  And everythin' that's shakin' in between
  Am7
  If you should ever land upon it
  E7
    You better know what's on it
  Dm    E7              Am
    The planet of New Orleans


        Am7                   Fmaj7
Now I'm tryin' to find my way
B7                          E
  Through the rain and the steam
Dm    E7                                  Am7
  I'm lookin' straight ahead through the screen
    Am7                   Fmaj7
And then I heard her say
B7
Somethin' in the limousine
      Dm                       E7              Am7
'bout taking a ride across the planet of New Orleans


Instr.: Am7  Fmaj7  B7  E7  Dm  E7  Am7  Fmaj7  B7  Dm  E7 --> 2x
        Am7  Fmaj7  Am7  Fmaj7  Em7  Fmaj7 Em7


   Am7
If she was an ace
    Fmaj7
And I was just a jack
        B7                  E
And the cards were never seen
Dm   E7                                 Am7
  We could have been the king and the queen
        Am7             Fmaj7
But she took me back to her courtyard
        B7
Where magnolia perfume screams
           Dm
Behind the gates and the granites
       E7              Am
Of the planet of New Orleans


Chorus twice


Instr.: Am7  Fmaj7  B7  E  Dm  E7  Am7
