[Verse 1]
Am Dm9 G6
Alexis, thank you for a pleasant southern day
Dm9 G6 Cmaj7 C
Spent on the levy throwin' pennies in the bay
Am
And talkin 'bout the rich folks
Dm9 G6
On the big boats that pass that way
Dm9 G6
You were just a young girl
Cmaj7 C C7
I just could not stay
[Verse 2]
Am Dm9 G6
Alexis, I can't remember how we met back then
Dm9 G6 Cmaj7 C
Was on my way to Atlanta, now I'm on that road again
Am Dm9 G6
Not really poor, had money just not to spend
Dm9 G6 Cmaj7 C C7
You were just a young girl, and I was in need of a friend
[Chorus]
F
Alexis, you always used to talk about
Cmaj7 C
Leavin your hometown, headin on south
F
Maybe down to New Orleans
Cmaj7 C
And you wanted me to help you out
Am
But you were just a young girl
F Gsus2 G
And I was just a hobo...
Am Am7
that had my doubts
[Verse 3]
Am Dm9 G6
Alexis, I did not want to... want to leave you there
Dm9 G6 Cmaj7 C
Sometimes this life we lead is so unfair
Am
I wanted to take you with me
Dm9 G6
But I did not dare
Dm9 G6 Cmaj7 C C7
You were just a young girl and I could not pay your fare
[Chorus]
F
Alexis, you always used to talk about
Dm9 Cmaj7 C
Leavin your hometown, headin on south
F
Maybe down to New Orleans
Cmaj7 C
And you wanted me to help you out
Am
But you were just a young girl
F Gsus2 G
And I was just a hobo...

chords. Figure out the melody by listening to the song. I didn’t indicate timing of
chords or how many times the chords necessarily need be played. It’s not difficult to

version 3
Tuning: E A D G B E
Key: Am
IMPORTANT PERFORMANCE NOTES: 1) On the actual recording there are 2 electric guitars but these parts can also
be played w/ a second and third acoustic guitar if desired
2) There is what I believe to be a Dm9 chord (I just don't hear a Dm)that if
gripped properly would be (X 5 3 5 5 X) but when playing the song the D String
gets muted despite my best efforts. So I would suggest (X 5 X 5 5 0) because
a D7sus2 is much easier to grab after playing the Open Position Am and it
sounds the same
3) I started to tabbed the Outro Guitar Solo of Guitar #3 but this song offers
a wonderful opportunity to just free form jam using the A Pentatonic Scale
since the song is in the Key of Am. Make up your own Outro Solo

Have my doubts
Repeat 22 more times and fade out
Alexis, thank you for a pleasant southern day
Spent on the levy throwin' pennies in the bay
And talkin 'bout the rich folks
On the big boats that pass that way
You were just a young girl
I just could not stay
Alexis, I can't remember how we met back then
Was on my way to Atlanta, now I'm on that road again
Not really poor, had money just not to spend
You were just a young girl, and I was in need of a friend
Alexis, you always used to talk about
Leavin your hometown, headin on south
Maybe down to New Orleans
And you wanted me to help you out
But you were just a young girl
And I was just a hobo... that had my doubts
Alexis, I did not want to... want to leave you there
Sometimes this life we lead is so unfair
I wanted to take you with me
But I did not dare
You were just a young girl and I could not pay your fare
Alexis, you always used to talk about
Leavin your hometown, headin on south
Maybe down to New Orleans
And you wanted me to help you out
But you were just a young girl
And I was just a hobo... that had my doubts
I had my doubts
