[Verse 1]

Cm6                  G7             Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
There's a moon over Bourbon Street tonight

Cm6                       G7               Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
I see faces as they pass beneath the pale lamplight

F#             G7                 Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
I've no choice but to follow that call

Fm7/F5                  G7             F#7      G7
The bright lights, the people, and the moon and all

Cm6           G7       Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
I pray every day to be strong

F#           G7                Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
For I know what I Do must be wrong

F#                          G7                       Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

F#                  G7             Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Cm  B  Cm6  G7


[Verse 2]

Gm7/F5                  G7                 Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
It was many years ago that I became what I Am

Gm7/F5                  G7                Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
I was trapped in this life like an innocent lam

Cm6                      G7      Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
Now I can never show my face at noon

F#                             G7                   Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
And you'll only see me walking by the light of the moon

Cm6                  G7              Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
The brim of my hat hides the eye of a beast

Gm7/F5                              G7          Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
I've the face of a sinner but the hands of a priest

F#                       G7                           Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
Oh you'll never see my shade or hear the sound of my feet

F#                    G7             Cm / Cm^7 / Cm7 / Cm6
While there's a moon over Bourbon Street

Note: 

that the fourth line in verse 2 is played differend in de video by Sting, but 
since he started with a Fm7b5 and ended with the Cm I believe it's just a misteak 
he made and was supposed to be played like I discribed.

Another differce with the record version is the fact that this acoustic version only 
contains 2 verses. And the fact that it is played in a 
completly differend key. This also seams to be a regular jazz pattern.
