I hope this is ok...I don't know if I pressed return after each line but anyway......this is the most awesome song... It's on an album by "Trapezoid". They do a harmony that it just beautiful........ Annie Talley

  G              D         Em         c                G
  It was on one fine march mornin, I bid new orleans adieu
  
  G              D          Em D          G           C
  And rode the rails til' evenin and  I lay me down again
  
  G             D       Em D       G             c
  I cursed all foreign money, no credit could I gain
  
  G                 D         Em               C               G
  Which filled my heart with longing for the lakes of the ponchetrain.
