Rodney Crowell — Stars On The Water

A  
Down in Louisiana, bayous by and by 
A peirot pole or your natural soul 
Keeps you tied to a tree high tide  
 F#m  
Beer joint lights come on 
             A  
And then the crowd starts rolling in 
Pretty soon you got stars on the water 
You got stars on the water  
        F#m  
You got stars on the water 
        A  
When it rains 
 
 A  
Beaumont to Biloxi, sea breeze at your door  
Gypsy rains dang hurricanes  
White silver sandy shores 
 F#m  
Blue light lounge is shining  
 A  
Way out on the pier 
Makes it look just like stars on the water  
Stars on the water  
             F#m  
Stars on the water  
         A  
When it rains 
 
Solo (same progression) 
 
 A  
When it's midnight down in Mobile 
Shining moon beams on the bay 
They come from miles around 
To dance the jukebox down 
To hear the good time sounds they play 
 F#m  
And all across the harbour by TV 
 A  
The night life's shining on 
Makes you feel just like stars on the water  
Stars on the water  
             F#m  
Stars on the water  
         A  
When it rains
