Subject: RE: Chords Req: The Lakes of Ponchartrain
'Twas (C)on a (G)dark and (Em)stormy (Am)night
(C)as I (Am)lately (F)took (G7)my (C)way,
Through windfalls (Em)thick with (Am or F)Devils grubs,
my (Em)aching feet did (F)stray,
Un(C)til at (Em)last by the (Am)evening (Em)star
some (Am)higher ground (F)I (G)gained (G7)
And (C)there I (G)met with a (Em)Creole (Am)girl
(C)by the (Am)Lakes of (F)Pon-(G7)char-(C)train.
I'm doing this by memory. This roughly how I used to play it.
