G D G
South Carolina
C G
Put out its arms for me
C G D G G7
Right up until everything went black somewhere on Lonely street
C G
And I still can't quite remember
C G
Who helped me to my feet
C G
Thank God for a long neck bottle
D G
The angel's remedy
[Chorus]
C
Louisiana rain
G
Is falling just like tears
Em A
Running down my face
D
Washing out the years
C
Louisiana rain
G
Is soaking through my shoes
D
I may never be the same
G
When I reach Baton Rouge
[Solo]
G D G C G C G D G
[Verse 3]
G D G
Well I never will get over
C G
This English refugee
C G D G
Singing to the jukebox in some all-night beanery
C G
Yeah he was eating pills like candy
C G
And chasing them with tea
C G D G G7
You should have seen him lick his lips at old black Molly B.
[Chorus]
C
Louisiana rain
G
Is falling at my feet
Em A
Baby I'm noticing a change
D
As I move down the street
C
Louisiana rain
G
Is soaking through my shoes
D
I may never be the same
G G7
When I reach Baton Rouge
C
Louisiana rain
G
Is falling just like tears
Em A
Running down my face
D
Washing out the years
C
Louisiana rain
G
Is soaking through my shoes
D
I may never be the same
G
When I reach Baton Rouge
