E7/6     A           D9      Cdim            A  
Do you know what it means to miss New Or - leans  
 
D9  Am7          C#m7/5-     F#7 
And miss it each night and day? 
 
  Bm7          Dm6           A9        C#m7/5-   F#7    
I know I'm not wrong -- this feeling's gettin' stronger  
 
    Bm        Bm7/E Dm6   E7 
The longer, I stay   a - way. 
 
 
E7/6  E7  A            D9        Cdim Bm7/5-   E6  
Miss them moss covered vines, the tall sugar pines  
 
 D9  Am7           C#m7/5-    F#7 
Where mockin' birds used to sing; 
 
    Bm7        Cdim      A9  C#m7/5-      F#7    
And I'd like to see that lazy Mis - sis - sip - pi 
 
D9       E7/6   A 
Hurryin' into spring. 
 
 
Bridge: 
 
    Esus4    E7/9- Cdim  A6 
The moonlight on  the  bayou,  
 
F#m       Esus4     E7/9- Cdim  A6 
A  Creole tune that fills the air;  
 
Fdim E7   Bm7/5-    Am7       F#m 
 I  dream about Magnolias in bloom  
 
        B7     Cdim    E7 
And I'm wishin' I was there. 
 
 
E7/6 E7  A            D9     Cdim Bm7/5-    A6  
 Do you know what it means to miss New Orleans  
 
D9    Am7            C#m7/5-     F#7 
When that's where you left your heart? 
 
     Bm7              Cdim     A9     C#m7/5-  F#7    
And there's something more: I miss the  one I care for  
 
D9          Dm6  E7      A  
More than I miss New Orleans.
