F#m7-5 B7 Em There's a moon over Bourbon Street tonight F#m7-5 B7 Em I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamp light C B7 Em I've no choice but to follow that call C#dim F#7 C B7 the bright lights, the people, and the moon and all F#m7-5 B7 Em I pray every day to be strong F#m7-5 B7 Em for I know what I do must be wrong C B/F# Em Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet C B7 Em while there's a moon over Bourbon Street F#m7-5 B7 Em It was many years ago that I became what I am F#m7-5 B7 Em I was trapped in this life like an innocent lamb C B7 Em now I never show my face at noon C#dim F#7 C B7 and you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon F#m7-5 B7 Em the brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast F#m7-5 B7 Em I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest # # CHORDS # #FBCF#7m # # eadgbe eadgbe eadgbe eadgbe # ------(1) ----0- ------(1) ------(1) # 1-----(2) --1---(1) ---1-1(2) 111111(2) # ------(3) -2-3-4(2) --2-3-(3) ---2--(3) # --2---(4) ------(3) -4----(4) -3----(4) #---333(5) # # # In the above chords, if you are having difficulty, in the F#m7-5 drop the # F# bass note and use the open A string.
