1.             I spent last night in the arms of a girl in Louisiana,
G                              C           F                      G
    and though I'm out on the highway my thoughts are still with her.
a                   G                F            C
    Such a strange combination of a woman and a child,
G                    C               F                  G                C  ~
  Such a strange situation stoppin' every hundred miles,  callin' Baton Rouge.

2.  A replay of last night's events rolls through my mind,
G              C            F                  G
    except a scene or two erased by sweet red wine.
a                 G               F                 C
    And I see a truck stop sign ahead, so I change lanes,
G                   C             F               G                    C  ~
   I need a cup of coffee, and a couple dollars change, callin' Baton Rouge.

 C
Operator, won't you put on through?

I gotta send my love down to Baton Rouge!

Hurry up, won't you put her on the line?

I gotta talk to the girl just one more time.     +  F - G - F - G

C                    G              F                G
    And it won't be long until I'm with you all the time, but until
      F                 G              C               F                          
    then I'll spend my money up right down to my last dime, 
       G            C
    ca..llin Baton Rouge.       + REFRAIN  +     F

How to practise this song

1
Put your capo on fret 2
Clamp the capo on before you start — otherwise the shapes won't sound like the original.
2
Practise the barre chord F
F is a barre chord. Lay your index finger flat across all strings and press firmly; practise it on its own until every string rings clearly before you use it in the song.
Open
3
Practise the change: F ↔ A
Play each chord for 4 beats, then 2, then 1 — with the metronome at 60-70 bpm. Only push the tempo once the change is clean and on time.

Great first song
Focus on clean chords — let every string ring. Speed comes by itself once the shapes are right.
