BmA
She said baby our love's just like your songs
E
The beat ain't bad but the words are all wrong
BmA
It's time to pack my bags, it's time to just move on
EBmA
She sang, Johnny, I'm gone, gone, gone
EGA
And she's gone
BmA
Me and Leigh met summer of '95
E
In a burgundy dress lookin' finer than French wine
BmA
A Cajun Queen with another side
EBmA
She was a schoolboy's dream, I was out my mind
E
She was lookin' fine
G
She said 'You want to drive me home'
A
But what I didn't know...

Oh, oh, shala-lala - I was dancing with the Queen of New Orleans

BmA
That night I made a move, man I fell hard
E
When I put my hands in her cookie jar
BmAE
She was more than a girl, she was a cabaret star
BmAE
I was a deer in the lights of a speeding car
G
Nothing's what it seems
A
She was a Venus de Milo in her sister's jeans
