( listen to the song for the rythym )

Am Dm
i’ll tell it like it happened , it was darius and noland and me ,
E Am
just a few po’ boys trying to get up out of missouri .
Am Dm
took 55 to louisiana , stopped down by the highway to eat .
E Am
they both had crawfish . strictly chicken for me .
Am Dm
back out under thunderheads , the radio was southern soul .
Am C
they interrupted clarence carter with a strange – ass local show .
E
they were sayin’ . . .

Am E
“come down to lake pontchartrain .
C G
rest your soul and feed your brain .
Am E
that’s where you will get to see
C G Am
everything the water can be . ”

Am Dm
the rain was comin’ down , the wind was howlin’ outside of slidell .
E Am
it was the kind of night that makes you think the whole world’s goin’ to hell .
Am Dm
we got off on an exit ’cause we couldn’t read the map so great .
E Am
near the choctaw motel , we parked to deliberate ,
Am Dm
when out of the bayou came a man like the lake had a tongue .
E Am
he was right up on the glass , all yellow – eyed , black teeth , bangin’ on the windshield ,
E
screamin’ like a demon at the top of his lungs ,

Am E
“come down to lake pontchartrain .
C G
rest your soul and feed your brain .
Am E
free for you and all your friends .
C G
crawfish ’til the bitter end .
Am E
come down to lake pontchartrain .
C G
wade to where the shallows break .
Am E
that’s where you will get to see
C G Am
everything the water can be . ”

Dm
i was drivin’ out of there as fast as a camry could ,
E Am
but the interstate was flooded , so i had to take the road through the woods .
Am F
bad move in retrospect; the road disappeared in the rain ,
E
and i stood on the brakes when i saw the sign :
E
“lake pontchartrain . . . ”

Am
darius was yelling that he saw somebody out in the swells;
E
he jumped out , runnin’ , and noland was goin’ as well .
Am Dm
“come back!” why the hell would they leave the car?
E E
and that’s when i heard it , make no mistake –
E E
the voices were calling them from under the lake . . .

“come down to lake pontchartrain . . .
come down to lake pontchartrain . . .
come down to lake pontchartrain . . .
come down to lake pontchartrain . . . ”

Am Dm
the crawfish were screaming , the waves danced in time .
E Am
my friends went in deeper; the water , it climbed .
Am Dm
i watched in terror; the lake opened wide ,
E Am
and horribly roaring , it pulled them inside .
Am F
that’s how it happened! why would i lie?
E Am
there were no bodies , i’ve got none to hide .
Dm Am
i’m just a poor boy , lost his friends in the rain .
E Am
any more questions , just go and ask lake pontchartrain .

and it ends with this progression :
