Verse 1:

Gm6                  A7             Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
There's a moon over Bourbon Street tonight

Gm6                       A7               Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight

Bb             A7                 Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
I've no choice but to follow that call

Bm7/B5                  E7             Bb7      A7
The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all

Gm6           A7       Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
I pray every day to be strong

Bb           A7                Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
For I know what I do must be wrong

Bb                          A7                       Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

Bb                  A7             Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Dm  F  Gm6  A7

Verse 2:

Em7/B5                  A7                 Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
It was many years ago that I became what I am

Em7/B5                  A7                Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lam

Gm6                      A7      Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
Now I can never show my face at noon

Bb                             A7                   Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon

Gm6                  A7              Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast

Em7/B5                              A7          Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest

Bb                       A7                           Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

Bb                    A7             Dm / Dm^7 / Dm7 / Dm6
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Note: 

that the fourth line in verse 2 is played differend in de video by Sting, but 
since he started with a Bm7/b5 and ended with the Dm I believe it's just a misteak 
he made and was supposed to be played like I discribed.

Another differce with the record version is the fact that this acoustic version only 
contains 2 verses. And the fact that it is played in a 
completly differend key. This also seams to be a regular jazz pattern. 

And last but not least I like to thank L. Venderbosch for helping me out
with some parts of the song.

Cheers and enjoy!
