[Eb]
[Ab]
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
Alone in the [Eb] pale moonlight
Waiting for a man, a riverboat gambler
Who said that he'd [Ab] return tonight
They used to walk on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
And love him the [Eb] whole night through
Until the riverboat gambler went off to make a living
And bring it on [Ab] home to you
[Db] The Evangeline, [Ab] Evangeline
[Eb] A [Ab] curse is the soul of the Mississippi [Eb] queen
That pulled her [Ab] man away
Well now by you Sam, down in South Louisiana
Had a gamblin' [Eb] on his brain
Evangeline from the Maritimes
Was slowly [Ab] goin' insane
She stands on the top of a hickory hill
Alone in the lightning [Eb] and the thunder
Down on the river the boat was a-sinkin'
And she watched that [Ab] queen go under
