Sweet Louisiana Sound Tab

by Billy Pilgrim


Hello, I'm form Valdemorillo, nerar Madrid, Spain and this is my first chords post. As 
English is horrible, I'll try not to write so much.
I think the only difficulty of this song is in your right hand: the rythm, the feel you 
to play it. It's really funny to play. Hope you enjoy it!

INTRO
Riff: - // -- // 
// ---

(Riff)
-         --
Lookin' out       from a hotel room
// -- // --- //
All alone on a Memphis afternoon, I've been
-         --
waitin' for      This storm to pass
// -- // --- //
Gonna clear a path and you can kiss my ass, goodbye

(Riff)
I walk the streets where Elvis lived
But they ain't never gonna crown the king
And I never felt that broken hearted
I left before things ever got started

Chorus:
           
 They got me on a riverboat driftin' down
                                      
  Oh muddy water get me out of town
                              -
   To that sweet…     Louisiana sound

SOLO 1 UNDER Riff

           --
 Underneath       a neon light
-- // - // - //- //
Another ghost down Beal street tonight
            
  I ain't out   to hurt nobody
                                         -
But I      played my hand I lost all my money
- // -- //
They've got the dogs out after me
// -- // --- //
They're diggin' in the trash but there's no scent of me

(Chorus)
They got me...

SOLO 2 UNDER Riff

          --
Party boys       out on Bourbon streets
-- // - // - //- //
Sweepin' them young girls right off of their feet
                             
They got   those love tattoos across their heart
                                             -
They've been    matching their vows in Mardi Gras
                --
  Turn the jukebox loud as it can go
-- // ---Bb//
     Pack'em inside this our last show
