[Am] Alexis, thank you for _ [D] pleasant, sudden [G] _ days.
[G] Spent on the levee, throwing [C] pennies in the bay,
_ [Am] And talking to the rich [D] folks on the big boats [G] that passed that way.
You were just a young girl, [C] and I just could not stay. _ _ _ _
_ _ [F] _ [C] _ _ _
_ [Am] Alexis, I can't remember [D] how we met back [G] then.
[D] Was on [G] my way to Atlanta, [C] and on that road again. _
[Am] Not really poor, [D] had money just not [Em] to spend.
_ You [G] were just a young girl, [C] I was in need of a friend. _ _
Well, [Dm] Alexis, you always used to talk about leaving your hometown, [C] heading off south. _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] Made it down to New Orleans, _ and you wanted me to [C] help you out. _ _
_ [Am] You were just a young girl, and [F] I was just a hoe.
[G] _ _ _
Had my [A] _ [Am] doubts. _
_ _ [E] _ _ [A] Alexis, I [Am] did not want to, [D] I wanna [G] leave you there.
_ Sometimes this life we [C] live is so unfair.
_ _ [Am] _ I wanted to take you with me, but [G] I did not [Dm] dare.
You were [G] just a young girl, [C] I couldn't carry your fare.
