Its a piano song, but with guitar its very beautiful either.

Intro    CF


                                                     CF
Someday the walls will tremble with terrible flames here
                                                  
‘Til the mouth of some hurricane sweeps them away
                                                        CF
And If I had either love or fortune I’d shed them both here
                                                      CF
But those cards are so rarely played I’ve hid them away

 
                         
The valleys of New Orleans
                         
The valleys of New Orleans

Oh Stanley I’ve heard you laughing your way around here
There’s a game that I wish to play, so slow down
I found another in Sidneys’ pocket, she knows my name
                                                          
And she says she wants to drive all night in the dark through all

 
                         
The valleys of New Orleans
                         
The valleys of New Orleans

Sidney says God is watching so don’t fear now
She says he’s bound to come, give him time
Her mouth is the taste of sea salt and saddled rum
                                                  
She speaks in a vagrant language I’d heard once in a film about

 
                         
The valleys of New Orleans
                         
The valleys of New Orleans
                         
The valleys of New Orleans
