CAPO 2nd Fret 
 
Chorus: 
D 
I am going down Louisiana way 
      G 
I'm going back as of this very day 
       A                                Em7 
Don't worry about me cause I'll be okay 
      G           A       D 
I'm going down Louisiana way 
 
Verse 1. 
D     
I will miss all my old Chicago friends 
      G          
And think about you San Francisco now and then 
A                                    Em7 
I will remember my com-padres in L.A. 
        G         A        D 
Look me up down Louisiana way 
 
(Repeat Chorus) 
 
Bridge: 
      Bm                   
Don't let your eyes get misty now 
 
We knew the time would come around 
    D 
For me to go  
    Em      A 
And I will miss you  
 
Verse 2. 
 
So old friend guess I'll see you while ago 

I might come back sometime you just never know  

I have left a sweetheart, North of Whiskey Bay 

True love waits down Louisiana way 
 
(Repeat Chorus) 
 
(Instrumental) 
 
(Repeat Chorus) 
     G            A       D 
I'm going down Louisiana way
