Capo IV

E A E F#m * A D 2x

       A
In the heart of the night
       D
In the cool southern rain
          A
There's a full moon in sight
        D
Shining down on the Pontchartrain

        A
And the river she rises
              D
Just like she used to do
         A
She's so full of surprises
      D
She reminds me of you

       F#m
In the heart of the night
                    D
In the heart of the night

Oh,   down in New Orleans

E A E F#m * A D

          A
There's a night bird singing
         D
Right on through till the dawn
        A
And the streets are still ringing
            D
With people carrying on
          A
It's been so long waiting
        D
Just to be here again
A
Anticipating
        D
All the time I could spend

       F#m
In the heart of the night
                    D
In the heart of the night

F#m  D        A
Oh,   down in New Orleans

E A E F#m * A D

      A                        D
And I trust in your love never falling down
      A
And I trust in your love
            D                          Bm
Just like I do in this town, oh, never falling down

And I'm so glad to be back in New Orleans

Please don't wake me, don't shake me,

If this is only just a dream

It's the only place I can face that feels so right

Below that Dixie moon and loving you

In the Heart of the Night


* F#m is optional...I just used it as fill
