Lafayette Cifras

[Verse 1]
                           C
Hurry over and cry, Lafayette
F           G                Am        G
I knew that I'd lose you the moment we met
        C           Am          F           G
But the bayou still sings every night in my head
         C          G             C
Though I can't understand what it wants
F            G             Am           G
I love when it rains but I hate getting wet
      C               G             C
Never thought it'd be me that you'd haunt
 
[Verse 2]
C
Can't remember your words, Lafayette
           F            G            Am             G
You said, "Words didn't matter, it's what's in your head"
    C            Am              F            G
But if you don't ask then you're bound not to get
      C             G            C
Still know what you said wasn't wrong
F              G         Am            G
I can't turn a corner or walk down the street
        C           G         C    N.C.
Without seeing your face come along
 
[Chorus]
          Am Em               Am Em
Last born son, yeah, loaded gun
F        G           C      Am             G               F
You know I recall somebody saying, "Therе ain't no cowboys left"
    G                     N.C.                    C    Am  F  G
But they ain't met mе and they ain't met you, Lafayette
C            Am          F G
 They ain't met me, Lafayette
C Am F G F G
Oooooooooh
N.C.                     C
They ain't met you, Lafayette
 
[Verse 3]
C
The months march away, Lafayette
F          G                  Am         G
I hear it takes years for the heart to reset
          C            Am            F           G
Yeah, but one of these days, I'll be done with regret
        C              G            C
Didn't think it would take me this long
F              G             Am         G
Still sing Delta Dawn when I catch a sunset
  C            G              C   N.C.
I remember how you loved that song
 
[Chorus]
          Am Em               Am Em
Last born son, yeah, loaded gun
F        G           C      Am             G               F
You know I recall somebody saying, "Therе ain't no cowboys left"
    G                     N.C.                    C
But they ain't met mе and they ain't met you, Lafayette
