_ _ 30 miles [F#m] out in the Gulf Stream [B] I can hear those south [F#] winds moan
The _ bridges are [F#m] looking lower, [F#] the shrimp boats are hurrying home
_ The old man [F#m] down in the quarter [B] slowly [F#] turns to me
Took another [F#m] sip of whiskey, [B] he looked at [F#] me and said
Well I was born in the [A] rain by the Bunker train
[B] Right beneath that [F#] Louisiana moon
Don't mind the [A] strain of the hurricane
[B] She comes round [C#] every June
[F#] And I'm like water, [A] she's the devil's [B] daughter
She's hard and she's cold [F#] and she's mean
Nobody's taught [E] her that, it takes a lot of [B] water
To wash away New [F#] Orleans

The old man come down [F#m] from Chicago
[B] Gonna sit there and live [F#] their life
He said it's got to be [F#m] three feet higher
[B] Or it won't make it through the night
[F#] The old man [F#m] down in the quarter
Said [B] don't you listen to [F#] that boy
The water be [F#m] down by morning [B] soon
He'll be on his way to [F#] Illinois
_ Well I was born in the [A] rain by the Bunker train
[B] Right beneath that [F#] Louisiana moon
Don't mind the [A] strain of the hurricane
[B] She comes round [C#] every June
[F#] And I'm like [A] water, she's the devil's daughter
[B] She's hard and she's cold [F#] and she's mean
And we finally taught [E] her that it takes a lot of [B] water
To wash away New [F#] Orleans
I was born in the rain [A] by the Bunker train
[B] Right beneath that [F#] Louisiana moon
Don't mind the strain [A] of the hurricane
[B] She comes round [C#] every June
[F#] And I'm like water, [A] she's the devil's daughter
[B] She's hard and she's cold and [F#] she's mean
And we finally taught her [E] that it takes a lot of water
