A5                      E5            A5 
He had a reason to get back to Lake Charles 
           D5 
He used to talk about it 
             A5 
He'd just go on and on 
          E5 
He always said Louisana 
             A5  
Was where he felt at home 
A5              E5        A5 
He was born in Nacogdoches 
          D5 
That's in East Texas 
                 A5 
Not far from the border 
                E5 
But he liked to tell everybody 
                 A5 
He was from Lake Charles 
       D5                      A5 
Did an angel whisper in your  ear 
    D5                                 A5 
And hold you close and take away your fear 
         E5             A5 
In those long last moments 
A5 
We used to drive 
     E5                   A5 
Thru Lafayette and Baton Rouge 
     D5  
In a yellow Camino 
             A5 
Listening to Howling Wolf 
            E5 
He liked to stop in Lake Charles 
                 A5 
Cause that's the place that he loved 
A5                    E5               A5 
Did you run about as far as you could go 
         D5  
Down the Lousiana highway 
                  A5 
Across Lake Ponchatrain 
                    E5 
Now your soul is in Lake Charles 
          A5 
No matter what they say  
       D5                      A5 
Did an angel whisper in your  ear 
    D5                                 A5 
And hold you close and take away your fear 
         E5             A5 
In those long last moments
