(Intro)
[Am] [G] [C]
[C]They we say weâ??ve got to leave but[F] thereâ??s no way to go
[C]This ainâ??t the first time weâ??v[G]e weathered out a storm
[C]And I ainâ??t got nothing but at [F]least I know itâ??s mine
And Iâ??ll be[Am] god damned if Iâ??m leaving here before [G]the day I die
(Chorus)
[F]So let the rain sting my ne[C]ck
[F]Let the mighty Mississippi take this g[Am]od-forsaken to[G]wn
Let the [F]storm and all the fury come and ca[C]rry me away
Take m[Am]e to that place somew[G]here on higher ground[C]
The voices on the radio were cracking off and on
The court is underwater and the levees all but gone
Thereâ??s children in the treetops and soldiers in the sky
Itâ??s too late now to run Iâ??d never make it out alive
(Chorus)
Everyone sit tight help is on the way
I donâ??t think Jr. is going to last another day
We got a sawed off and a red hot .44
So all you looters best come heavy when youâ??re knocking on my door
(Chorus)
(Bridge)
[Em]We all know this crescent city just wonâ??[F]t be the same again C G
And Iâ??ll still be standinâ?? when the saints go marching in
(Instrumental â?? Play chords from chorus)
Xâ??s on the windows say thereâ??s no one left inside
If you count the painted numbers youâ??ll know just how many died
And Iâ??m one in half a million so at least Iâ??m not alone
The hurricane is over but the storm keeps raging on
(Chorus)
[F]So let the rain sting my nec[C]k
[F]Let the mighty Mississippi take this god-[Am]forsaken to[G]wn
Let the [F]storm and all the fury come and c[C]arry me away
Take m[Am]e to that place somew[G]here on higher ground[C]
Take m[Am]e to that place somew[G]here on higher ground[C]
