Planet of New Orleans Dire Straits
Intro.: Am7 Fmaj7 A# E Dm E7 Am7 C Fmaj7 A# E Dm E7
[Am] [C] [F] [Fmaj7] [A#] [E] [Dm7] [E7]
[Am7] [Fmaj7] [Am7] [Fmaj7] [Em] [Fmaj7] [Em]
[Am7]Standin' in the corner[Fmaj7]
[B7] Of Toulouse and Dau[Am7]phine
[Dm] [E7]Waitin' on Marie-On[Am7]dine
I'm [Am7]tryin' to place a tune
Under a Lou[Fmaj7]isiana moon[B7]beam
[Dm] On the [E7]planet of New Or[Am]leans
In a b[Am7]ar they call The Saturn[Fmaj7]
[B7] And in her eyes of [E]green
[Dm] And [E7]somethin' that she said in a [Am7]dream
In[Am7]side of my suit I got my [Fmaj7]mojo root
And a [B7]true love figurine
[Dm] For the [E7]planet of New Or[Am]leans
Chorus:
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/d/dire_straits/planet_of_new_orleans_crd.html )
[Am7]New Orleans [E7]- With other life upon it
And everythin' that's shakin' in bet[Am]ween
[Am7]If you should ever land upon it
[E7] You better know what's on it
[Dm] The [E7]planet of New Or[Am]leans
Now I'm [Am7]tryin' to find my way[Fmaj7]
[B7] Through the rain and the s[E]team
[Dm] I'm [E7]lookin' straight ahead through the s[Am7]creen
And [Am7]then I heard her say[Fmaj7]
[B7]Somethin' in the limousine
'bout [Dm]taking a ride across the [E7]planet of New Or[Am7]leans
Instr.: Am7 Fmaj7 B7 E7 Dm E7 Am7 Fmaj7 B7 Dm E7 –->2x
[Am7] [Fmaj7] [Am7] [Fmaj7] [Em7] [Fmaj7] [Em7]
If [Am7]she was an ace
And [Fmaj7]I was just a jack
And the [B7]cards were never see[E]n
[Dm] We [E7]could have been the king and the qu[Am7]een
But she [Am7]took me back to [Fmaj7]her courtyard
Where ma[B7]gnolia perfume screams
Behind the [Dm]gates and the granites
Of the [E7]planet of New Or[Am]leans
Chorus twice
Instr.: Am7 Fmaj7 B7 E Dm E7 Am7
Am7 Fmaj7 A# E7 Dm E7 ---> repeate to fade
