[Intro] | D | G | D | A | | A | D | D | [Verse 1]
D
I never knew that the place i grew

       G        D
Is the grandest place on earth

       E7
Till I roamed around from town to town

    A                    A7
But now I know what it's worth
[Bridge 1]
D                                         G
Listen while I tell you 'bout the place I mean

        D                       A     D
It's my little ol' home down in New Orleans

In the sunny south where the black oil flows

E7                     A
That's where I long to be

    D                                G
The Dixieland where the white cotton grows

   E7             A    A7
Is calling now to me
[Bridge 2]
    D                              G
And soon i'll be in the land of my dreams

It's my little old home down in New Orleans

| G | D | A | A7 | D | [Verse 2] I've been east, and way out west
      G          D
Been around most everywhere

        E7
Now I'm headed south for a good long rest

A7
I'll be glad when I get there
[Bridge 3]
        D                                G
All the wonderful things in the world it seems

Are awaiting for me down in New Orleans

The Dixieland where the white cotton grows
