E7 B7 E
Ma cheri, she has left me for good
E7 B7 E
After I gave my love for so long
B7
She's out there with somebody new
E
And I just can't sit here alone, no

E7
But it's so hard to drive with these tears in my eyes
A A#dim7 -- C#dim7
And it takes a long time to get to Baton Rouge
E B7 E A
And all I want is to hear somebody play my song
Ddim7 B7 E
When a Cajun man gets the blues


B7 E
When I'm feeling the weight of the water
B7 E
Lord I know that there's blues in the Quarter
E7 B7 A
If I could hold back my tears and make it there, I'd be alright
B7
But I might need ya, New Orleans, every night

E B7 E
I don't know where I'd be without you
E7 B7 E
Yeah, you've been there for me all the while
B7
From Lafayette, to Thibodaux, to Lake Charles
E
From Natchitoches, to Shreveport, to Grand Isle

E7
When I'm feeling the pain, the bayou's callin' my name
A A#dim7 -- C#dim7
And that's an offer that I can't refuse
E B7 E A
Oh,it's hard to miss you, Louisiana
Ddim7 B7 E
When a Cajun man gets the blues
E7 B7 E A
Yes it's hard to miss you, Louisiana
Ddim7 B7 E
When this Cajun man gets the blues
