Evangeline chords
The Band (Robbie Robertson Live from the Shibuya Public Hall, Tokyo, Japan 25-Feb-1987)
G D
G
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
D D7
Alone in the pale moonlight
D
Waiting for a man, a riverboat gambler
D7 G
Said that he'd return tonight
G
They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
D D7
Loving the whole night through
D
Til the riverboat gambler went off to make a killing
D7 G
And bring it on home to you
C G
Evangeline, Evangeline
D G
Curses the soul of the Mississippi queen
D D7 G
That pulled her man away
G
Bayou Sam, from the South Louisian
D D7
Had gambling in his veins
D
Evangeline, from the Maritimes
D7 G
Was slowly going insane
G
She stands on the top of Hickory Hill
D D7
She stands in the lightning and thunder
D
Down on the river the boat was a-sinking
D7 G
She watched that queen go under
C G
Evangeline, Evangeline
D G
Curses the soul of the Mississippi queen
D D7 G
That pulled her man away . . . .
