Tonart: C major
Verse 1
the day she arrived.
G
She was nothing like we'd ever seen.
Her suitcase was battered,
her clothes a little tattered and torn,
C
but she moved like a queen.
Words soon got around
to the boys in town
F
They gathered like moths to a flame
When she stepped on the stage
C
of the rainy night grill
G
C
I knew life would ever be quite the same
F
She was queen of the bayou
from Chauvin to Mamoun
C
Every town has a story to tell
G
And you won't find a man
in South Louisiana
C
Who'd deny he'd been under her spell
She took the best room
at the Empire Hotel
They called the Napoleon Suite
G
She laid there for hours
among mountains of flowers
C
And jewels of love laid at her feet
When evening came down,
she'd parade through the town
F
Crowds were aside to be seen
Just a smile and a wave,
C
she'd make you her slave
G
C
No wonder we called her the queen
F
She's the queen of the bayou
from Nainu to Tibidou
C
She captured each towniesh in town
G
And she shined every city
on the old Mississippi
Till they gleamed
C
D
like the jewels in her crown
It didn't take long to see
something was wrong
A
We could tell she was restless again
She wrecked all the lives
of the sweethearts and wives
D
Growing the hearts of their men
Checked in her keys
Left us to breathe
G
Nothing but memories to keep
On the day she left town
D
The clocks all slowed down
A
D
The town simply went back to sleep
E
She was queen of the bayou
From Chauvin to Mamou
G
D
Every town has a story to tell
A
And you won't find a man
in South Louisiana
D
Who'd deny he'd been under her spell
G
She was queen of the bayou
D
G
From Mahmoud to Thibodaux
D
G
D
She captured each parish and town
A
And she shined every city
On the old Mississippi
D
Surely gleam like the jewels in her crown
