[C] [F] And Basin Street [A] is a street [D] where all the boys and the good folks [G] meet down in New Orleans
[C] in the land of dreams.
And you never know how nice it seems and that's how much it really means.
[F] Dear to me, [A] yes siree, [D] dear to me, yes siree, can't you see, baby, [G] I can't lose [Am] [Gm] those good
old Basin Street [Bb] blues.

Hey, I see the moon and the moon is pale and it looks like they're taking some cat to jail.
No, it's the moon is pale and the sun is gone and the steamboats are coming and they're
splashing and they're going, whoo, whoo, oh, baba doo doo.
[Ab] And the pale moon shining [G] on the fields below, [Eb] folks all singing [F] songs [Ab] soft and low.
You needn't tell [Bb] me more, cause I [Abm] know, sleepy time [Eb] down south, [Ab] soft wind blowing through
the pinewood trees.
[Cm] And the folks down there [F] living life at ease, [Fm] when old Mamie [Bb] falls upon her knees, [Eb] sleepy
time down south, steamboats on [G] the river, splashing the night sky, [A] hey, baba [G] doo doo.
Angels ring and [Am] everybody [G] singing, the dance of the grave of [Bb] day.
[Ab]
[B] My dream is [Eb] old and it's every man's girl, [F] where I [Cm] belong.
Now I'm going to be [Bb] in my grave alone, where the sleepy sun [Cm] goes down.

My [Ab] dream
[Abm] is old [Eb] and it's every man's [F] girl, where [Cm] I belong.
Now I'm going to be [Bb] in my grave alone, where the [Abm] sleepy sun goes down.
