D 
Take me a ride on a riverboat 
              C 
Down in New Orleans 
      D 
Gotta pocket full o' money and a liquor bottle 
      C             D 
Gonna drink away my dreams 
D 
Don't really want to stay 
             C 
Sure I can't leave 
D 
Get on up that riverboat 
    C              D 
And gamble away my dreams 
 

 
             C 
She makes me fly like an eagle 
                        D 
Higher and higher every day 
       C 
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams 
                 D     C D    C G 
I can't get her away 
 

 
D 
Sit down at that poker table 
                    C 
Five card stud's my game 
      D 
Gonna try and forget that crazy woman 
      C                  D 
Gonna try and forget her name 
D 
Don't know how I'll make it 
                         C 
But I'll forget her some way 
D 
One and only time I know 
C          D 
Gonna get away 
 

 
             C 
She makes me fly like an eagle 
                        D 
Higher and higher every day 
       C 
'Cause in my mind and in my dreams 
                 D    C D 
I can't get her away

She makes me fly like an eagle 
                        D 
Higher and higher every day

'Cause in my mind and in my dreams 
                 D 
I can't get her away 
D 
Can't get her away
