WHEN the bayous haunted by Evangeline
In the pre-dawn hours close to Halloween
Cmajor
There’s a mist that’s hanging right in between
Gmajor
The Spanish moss & the cypress TREES
Dmajor Gmajor
And the memory of the life that’s gone wrong
Dmajor
C’est plus que possible
D7 Gmajor
Tu le sais Acadienne
Gmajor
I’m a driver alone in my Cadillac
In a white chair rug you’ll be thinking back
Cmajor
TO be running wild as a child OF NINE
Gmajor
And the snakes and ‘gators they was friends of mine
Dmajor Gmajor
I’ll forever be un petit Acadien
Dmajor
C’est plus que possible
D7 Gmajor
Tu le sais Acadienne
Cmajor2
And MY father never found peace enough
Gmajor
To cure his permanent wanderlust
Cmajor2
Every time we’d get settled down
Dmajor
We’d wake up heading for another town

Gmajor
From the Louisiana to the Florida
That’s a be my home to a (un-im-up ???)
Cmajor
That’s a simple people don’t complicate
Gmajor
And you hear the future in the hands of fate
Dmajor Gmajor
And the life you get is the life that I want
Dmajor
C’est plus que possible
D7 Gmajor
Tu le sais Acadienne
Cmajor2
And my father never found peace enough
Gmajor
To cure his permanent wanderlust
Cmajor2
Every time we’d get settled down
Dmajor D7
We’d wake up heading for another town
Gamjor
Hear me boy cos your love is why
You got two three words you gonna be alright
Cmajor
And there’s powerful forces out up the swamp

It’ll be forever, make it permanent
Dmajor Gmajor
And the life you get is the life that I want
Dmajor
C’est plus que possible
D7 Gamjor
Tu le sais Acadienne

C’est plus que possible
