1. Strophe
Am                      Fmaj9
Standin' in the corner
B                  E       F6
Of Toulouse and Dauphine,
E7+                Am9
Waitin' on Marie Ondine.
    
I'm tryin' to place a tune
        Fmaj7         B
Under a Louisiana moonbeam
F6/7   E7               Am
On the planet of New Orleans.


2. Strophe
Am                              Fmaj9
In a bar they call "The Saturn"
B                  E       F6
And in her eyes of green
E7                               Am9 
And somethin' that she said in a dream.
                           Fmaj7
Inside of my suit I got my mojo root
B
And a true love figurine
F6/7    E7              Am
For the planet of New Orleans.


1. Refrain
       Am9  E7
New Orleans - the other planet,

With other life upon it.
                                    Am
And everythin' that's shakin' in between.
Am9
If you should ever land upon it,
E7                              F6/7
You better know what's on it,
    E7              Am
The planet of New Orleans.


3. Strophe
Am                               Fmaj9
Now I'm tryin' to find my way
B           E                   F6
Through the rain and the steam.
E7                                     Am9
I'm lookin' straight ahead through the screen.
                          Fmaj7
And then I heard her say
B
Somethin' in the Limousine,
F6/7                   E7+                     Am
'Bout takin' a ride across the planet of New Orleans.

4. Strophe
Am                   Fmaj9
If she was an ace
B                     E   Dm
And I was just a jack,
E                        Am9
And the cards were never seen,
Fmaj7                           Am
We could have been the king and queen.
                                       B
But she took me back to her courtyard
Where magnolia perfume screams.
F6/7              
Behind the gates and the granite
       E7                Am
Of the planet of New Orleans.


2. Refrain
       Am9
New Orleans,
E7
With other life upon it
                                    Am
And everythin' that's shakin' in between.
Am9
If you should ever land upon it
E7                              F6/7
You better know what's on it.
    E7                Am
The planet of New Orleans 
E7
With other life upon it.
                                    Am
And everythin' that's shakin' in between.
Am9
If you should ever land upon it,
E7                              F6/7
You better know what's on it,
    E7                Am B7 E7 Dm
The planet of New Orleans.
    E7               Am
The planet of New Orleans
