LOUISIANA

by The Walkmen
Album: A Hundred Miles Off


Awesome song from their 06 album.. The lead melody is easy to figure out if you listen to the song.

Intro: A

A
Louisiana
        D
Come go away with me 
A
We'll take the highway 
              D
I'll see you in between 
   E7             D
I listen to my head 
    A    F#m        D
And every word have come 
     E7
It's been two days without it 
   A        F#m       D
The sleeping in the sun 
A
Hey 

(same chords)
Crossing through Tennessee watching the sunrise 
Thinking about a dream 
Well we'll listen all night 
To the footsteps in the hall 
There's thunder and there's lightening 
A hundred miles off 

E7
I got my hands full all summer long 
A
I got my hands full 
A7
I got my hands 
full 

Interlude : D A D A

(same chords)
Louisiana 
Come go away with me 
Drinking our coffee 
Under the canopy 
Never saw a morning 
I slept through half a day 
There's thunder and there's lightening 
A hundred miles away 
Oh 

I got my hands full oh summertime 
I got my hands full 
I got my hands 

(interlude)
Da da da da da 
Da da da da da
