Tom: E

E7/6     A           D9      C°            A  
Do you know what it means to miss New Or - leans  
D9  Am7          C#m7/5-      F#7 
And miss it each night and day? 
  Bm7          Dm6           A9        C#m7/5-    F#7    
I know I'm not wrong -- this feeling's gettin' stronger  
    Bm        Bm7/E Dm6   E7 
The longer, I stay   a - way. 
E7/6  E7  A            D9        C° Bm7/5-    E6  
Miss them moss covered vines, the tall sugar pines  
 D9  Am7           C#m7/5-     F#7 
Where mockin' birds used to sing; 
    Bm7        C°      A9  C#m7/5-       F#7    
And I'd like to see that lazy Mis - sis - sip - pi 
D9       E7/6   A 
Hurryin' into spring. 
 
Ponte: 
    E4    E7/9-  C°  A6 
The moonlight on  the  bayou,  
F#m       E4     E7/9-  C°  A6 
A  Creole tune that fills the air;  
F° E7   Bm7/5-     Am7       F#m 
 I  dream about Magnolias in bloom  
        B7     C°    E7 
And I'm wishin' I was there. 
 
 
E7/6 E7  A            D9     C° Bm7/5-     A6  
 Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans  
D9    Am7            C#m7/5-      F#7 
When that's where you left your heart? 
     Bm7              C°     A9     C#m7/5-   F#7    
And there's something more: I miss the  one I care for  
D9          Dm6  E7      A  
More than I miss New Orleans.
