Am C F Fmaj7 A# E Dm7 E7
    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
