_ _ _ _ _ [A] _
Where _ _ she stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi, alone in the [E] pale moonlight, _ _
waiting for the man, a riverboat gambler, who said that he'd [A] return tonight.
They _ _ used to walk on the banks of the mighty Mississippi, _ lovingly [E]
like two,
till the riverboat gambler went off to make a killing and bring it on back [A]
to you.

_ _ _ _ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ Old Bayou's town from South Louisiana,
a gambler in [E] his veins. _ _
Evangeline from the Married Times,
a story of [A] going insane. _ _

she watched that [A] queen go under.

Evangeline, Evangeline,
[E] cause she's the soul [A] of the Mississippi queen [E] that pulled her [A] man away.
