Way down yonder in New Orleans

-4 -4  -4-3 -4  -3 -3   -3
In the land of dreamy queens,

  3     3  4 -4   5  6 6   
There's a garden of Eden, 

 -6    -6   6  5
that's what I mean.

 6 6    6 5    6    5   5    5
Creole babies with flashing eyes

-4 -4   -4    -3   -4  -3 -3   -3 
Softly whisp'ring with tender sighs--

   6      6    6     6   5  
"Stop!  Won't you give your 

-4 4  -4 -4  5 5    -4
lady fair a little smile?

 -6    -6  -6  -6   -6    -5   
Stop!  You bet your life you'll 

 5 -4     6   6 -6 -6   6
linger there a little while."

 6    6   6  5    6   -6   -6   -6
There is Heaven right here on earth

 6     6    6  5  6   -6
With those beautiful queens,

 6   6    6 -6   5  6   5  4
Way down yonder in New Orleans.
