Basin Street Blues


G                                   
Won't you come along with me (echo)
               D7      
Down that Mississippi;
G            G7          C7              
We'll take a boat to the land of dreams,
G                            D7  G        
Steam down the river down to New Orleans.

G                                    
The band's there to greet us, (echo)
                 D7       
Old friends will meet us,
G         G7     C7           
Where all people like to meet
G                             D7    G      
Heaven on earth, they call it Basin Street

G            B7            
Basin Street is the street
E7                            
Where the elite always meet -
A7              D7             
In New Orleans, land of dreams
G                                   
You'll never know how nice it seems
   D7                             
Or just how much it really means.

G           B7        
Glad to be, yessiree,
E7                               
Where welcomes free, dear to me,
      A7         D7              G     C7 G 
Where I can lose my Basin Street Blues.
