Lafayette Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]Hurry over and cry, Lafayette
[F]I knew that I'd[G] lose you
[Am]the moment we [G]met
But the [C]bayou [Am]still sings every
[F]night in my [G]head
Though I [C]can't under[G]stand what it [C]wants
[F]I love when i[G]t rains but
I [Am]hate getting [G]wet
Never [C]thought it'd be [G]me
that you'd [C]haunt

[Verse 2]
Can't [C]remember your words,
Lafayette
[F]You said, "Words didn't [G]matter,
it's [Am]what's in your [G]head"
But [C]if you don't [Am]ask then
you're [F]bound not [G]to guess
Still [C]know what [G]you said
wasn't [C]wrong[F]
I can't turn a [G]corner or [Am]walk
down [G]the street
Without [C]seeing your [G]face come along
[C]

[Verse 3]
Last [Am]born [Em]son, yeah, [Am]loaded [Em]gun[F]
You know [G]I recall s[Am]omebody saying,
"There [F]ain't no [G]cowboys [F]left"
But [G]they ain't met me and they ain't met you,
La[C]fayette[Am][F][G][C]
They ain't [Am]met me, Laf[F]ay[G]ette
[C]Oo [Am]h, oo[F] h[G][F]
[G]They ain't met you,
Lafay[C]ette

[Verse 4]
[C]The months march [G]away, [C]Lafay[F]ette
I hear it [G]takes years for the [Am]heart to [G]reset
Yeah, [C]one of these [Am]days,
I'll be [F]done with re[G]gret
Didn't [C]think it would [G]take me this [C]long
[F]Still sing Del[G]ta Dawn
when I [Am]catch a sun[G]set
I re[C]member how [G]you loved that song
[C]

[Verse 5]
Last [G]born [Am]son, [Em]yeah,
loaded [Am]gun[Em][F]
You know [G]I recall s[Am]omebo[C]dy s[Am]aying,
"There [F]ain't no [G]cowboys [F]left"
But [G]they ain't met me and they
ain't met you, Lafay[C]ette
