Robinella and The CCstringband - Marie Laveux guitar chord

E

Down in Louisiana where the blacktrees grow

Lives a VooDoo woman named Marie Laveux

A

She gotta black gapped tooth

E

And a mojo bone

Nephew wouldn't leave her 'lone

B E

She'd go ooooooh... Another man done gone

Well she lives in the swamp in a hollow log

With a one eyed snake and a three legged dog

A E

She got a big boney body, stringy hair

And if she ever caught you messin 'round there

B E

She'd go ooooooh... Another man done gone

A

Then one night when the moon was black

E F#

Into the swamp come a handsome Jack

A no good man like you all know

B

He was lookin around for Marie Laveux

E

He said Marie Laveux you lovely witch

Give me a charm that'll make me rich

A

Give me a million dollars and I'll tell you what I'll do

E

This very night I'm gonna marry you

B E

And it'll be mmmmmmm... Another man done gone

A

So Marie she done some magic shook a little sand

E

Made a million dollars and put it in his hand

F#

Then she wiggled and she giggled and she said

B

Hey, Hey, I'm gettin ready for my weddin' day

E

Oh handsome Jack, he said goodbye Marie

You're too damn ugly for a rich man like me

A

Then Marie she started mumblin', teeth started mashin'

E

She started tremblin' and her eyes started flashin'

B E

And she go ooooooh... Another man done gone

You ever get down where the blacktrees grow

And meet a VooDoo woman named Marie Laveux

A

She ever asked you to make her your wife

E

You better be true for the rest of your life

B E

Or it'll be ooooooh... Another man done gone

B B B B E7

Or it'll be ooooooh... Another man... Man... Man... Done gone...
