Evangeline Hotel chords

CAPO: 3rd Fret

[INTRO]
[G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C] [G] [C]

[VERSE 1]
Well, she [G]moves like Betty Grable
She's an [C]actress waiting [G]tables
And all her tips are kept inside a wishing [D]well
She's got an [G]agent down the hall
He's got her [C]photo on his [G]wall
She's got a room at the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel

[VERSE 2]
And from the [G]tenth floor fire escape
She can [C]see the great white [G]way
But not the street and not the eyes of those who [D]fell
She dreams she [G]sees her name in lights
She dreams that [C]dream every [G]night
Room ten-o-four at the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel

[CHORUS]
It's "Rock of [D]Ages Cleft for Thee"
She's just a [C]child of Tennes[G]see
Her daddy's girl, her golden curls locked in a [D]spell
Where you don't [G]play your music loud
And there [C]ain't no men al[G]lowed
On Friday nights at the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[G] [C] [G] [D] [G] [C] [G] [D] [G]

[VERSE 3]
You make it [G]here, so they declare
Then you can [C]make it anywhere [G]
Those old clichés ring through the halls just like a [D]bell
But tell it [G]to the ones who wait
Behind the [C]23rd Street [G]gate
On Friday nights at the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel

[CHORUS]
It's "Rock of [D]Ages Cleft for Thee"
She's going [C]back to Tennes[G]see
She's got a watch and winter coat that she can [D]sell
She learned the [G]hard unspoken rule
And things you [C]never learned in [G]school
All down the halls at the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel

[VERSE 4]
And you can [G]knock on any door
Any [C]room on any [G]floor
It's all the same at the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel [C] [G]
The house of dreams called the E[D]vangeline Ho[G]tel
