Lucinda Williams - Lafayette

      [Verse 1]
G
Oh my sweet Lafayette, how I'm gonna miss you
            C               G
You feel so good Lafayette, now I've come to greet you
D
Tell all my friends I've come back again
C                G
I couldn't stay away, I was gone only a day
               C                    G
But I'm comin' back to my sweet Lafayette


[Verse 2]
          G
I'm goin' down to Lafayette, I don't care how long I'm gone
                C                     G
It's so hard to leave you, Lafayette, now I know where I belong
          D
When that sweet fiddle sounds and Clifton gets down
     C                       G
That music sounds so good to me, I just might dance until three
                C                    G
And I gotta get back to my sweet Lafayette


Fiddle solo

[Verse 3]
G
Oh, those boys in Lafayette, smilin' so pretty
           C                  G
Those sweet boys in Lafayette, they sure do look good to me
      D
We danced all night long to a sweet Cajun song
      C                      G
Drinkin' and jivin' 'til dawn, I could dance on and on
           C                     G
Doin' a two-step in my sweet Lafayette

[Verse 4]
G
Take me back Lafayette, way down on the bayou
           C                G
I'm your girl, Lafayette, I'm gonna hang around you
          D
Eat that gumbo and rollin' and tumble
    C                       G
And do crazy things every night, soon I'll be feelin' alright
             C                   G
When I get back to my sweet Lafayette
             C                   G
When I get back to my sweet Lafayette
