Evangeline  
Recorded by Emmylou Harris
Written by Robbie Robertson

C
She stands on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
G7
Alone in the pale moonlight

Waiting for a man a riverboat gambler
C
Said that he'd return tonight


They used to waltz on the banks of the mighty Mississippi
G7
Loving the whole night through

He was a riverboat gambler off to make a killing
C
And bring it on back to you

F C
Evangeline Evangeline
G7 C
Curses the soul of the Mississippi Queen
G7 C
That pulled her man away


Bayou Sam from South Louisiana
G7
Had gambling in his veins

Evangeline from the maritime
C
Was slowly going insane


High on the top of a Hickory Hill
G7
She stands in the lightning and thunder

Down on the river the boat was a sinking
C
She watched that Queen go under

Repeat #3 x2
