[Verse 1]
F
Damn she hurts the morning after
         Dm
Drunk on thinking I could have her
F                                        Dm
Strung her out long like lights on a balcony
F
Come Wednesday, she don't care
       Dm
Tuesday night I had her here
F                                                    Dm
Like beads and feathers, it was heaven her hanging on me

[Chorus]
                  F
She took me for a ride, hit a new high
           Dm
Throwing confetti in her green eyes
            F                         Dm
Trying like hell to hold the bell of a ball
             F
She pulled me in a world of wonder
          Dm
It's a charade trying to love her
          F                                Dm
It's like trying to save a soul from Mardi Gras
           F
From Mardi Gras

[Verse 2]
F
Trashed my heart just like these streets
       Dm
Her perfume's all over me
     F                                 Dm
Just reminded me of a night I can't forget
       F
She paraded me around
             Dm                       F
Swirled eyes, not I had a crown on my head till she left
              Dm
Thought she'd stay, but instead

[Chorus]
                  F
She took me for a ride, hit a new high
           Dm
Throwing confetti in her green eyes
            F                         Dm
Trying like hell to hold the bell of a ball
             F
She pulled me in a world of wonder
          Dm
It's a charade trying to love her
          F                                Dm
It's like trying to save a soul from Mardi Gras
           F
From Mardi Gras
           Dm

[Interlude] 
F,Dm

[Bridge]
          Bb
She ain't looking for love
Dm            F
No she's just looking for a real good time
    Bb                   Dm
And you can't change her weather
        F               C F
She's a hurricane every time

[Interlude]
F,Dm

[Chorus]
                  F
She took me for a ride, hit a new high
           Dm
Throwing confetti in her green eyes
            F                         Dm
Trying like hell to hold the bell of a ball
             F
She pulled me in a world of wonder
          Dm
It's a charade trying to love her
          F                                Dm
It's like trying to save a soul from Mardi Gras
           F
