On The Banks Of The Old Pontchartrain
Co-written and recorded by Hank Williams
[3/4 time] CAPO 1
A A7 D A
I travelled from Texas to old Louisanne
E7
Through valleys over mountains and plains
A A7 D A
Both footsore and weary I rested awhile
E7 A
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
A A7 D A
The fairest young maiden that I ever saw
E7
Passed by as it started to rain
A A7 D A
We both found a shelter beneath the same tree
E7 A
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
INSTRUMENTAL
A A7 D A
We hid from the shower an hour or so
E7
She asked me how long I'd remain
A A7 D A
I told her that I'd spend the rest of my days
E7 A
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
A A7 D A
I just couldn't tell her that I ran away
E7
From a jail on the West Texas plain
A A7 D A
I prayed in my heart I would never be found
E7 A
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
INSTRUMENTAL
A A7 D A
Then one day a man put his hand on my arm
E7
And said I must go west the same day
A A7 D A
I left her alone without saying goodbye
E7 A
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
A A7 D A
Tonight as I sit here alone in my cell
E7
I know that she's waiting in vain
A A7 D A
I'm hoping and praying someday to return
E7 A
On the banks of the old Pontchartrain
