This City Of Mine

C G Am F C G Am G F C They run to the river G Spread out like a fan Am Or like pointy fingers F On an outstretched hand C Carrollton Jefferson G Jackson and Clay Am I'd set red carpets F G On each all the way C I love the spirit G In this city of mine Am The music on Frenchmen F All the places to dine C Give me that culture G Am G F Like a carefully aged wine Am G F I sure love the spirit C G C G In this city of mine C She's got problems G But if you look at the whole Am Good outweighs bad F In this city of my soul C To me New Orleans G Will never grow old Am G She's the jewel of the south F G On a crown made of gold C I love the spirit G In this city of mine Am The music on Frenchmen F All the places to dine C Give me that culture G Am G F Like a carefully aged wine Am G F I sure love the spirit C G C F In this city of mine Ab What do they say about statues Bb There's a place for them all Ab And there's room for everyone Bb Ab G Whether big or small C G Am F C G Am G F C I love the spirit G In this city of mine Am The music on Frenchmen F All the places to dine C Give me that culture G Am G F Like a carefully aged wine Am G F I sure love the spirit Am G F Oh I sure love the spirit Am G F I sure love the spirit C G C F G In this city of mine C/G
