Sing a Song of Love and Loss (New Orleans Style)

Liner Notes
This is my version of the New Orleans-style version of the song.
Thank you Patty for the lyrics and challenge.
Lyrics
V1
Lots of lyrics don’t make sense
To folks who went to college
But me, I like the simple songs
Without that city polish
V2
Let me hear a heartache song
From someone who has been there
Something I can understand
From all the time I’ve spent there
Ch
Sing a song of love and loss
Let it cover me like rain
Sing a song of love and loss
The passion and the pain
Sing a song of love and loss
Let me feel my heart again
V3
Sing of how she/he lied to me
How quickly I believed it
Led me down the dappled lane
And how she/he didn’t mean it
Ch
Sing a song of love and loss
Let it cover me like rain
Sing a song of love and loss
The passion and the pain
Sing a song of love and loss
Let me feel my heart again
Br
Everything hurts
Nighttime’s the worst
Why didn’t somebody
Warn me first
Ch
Sing a song of love and loss
Let it cover me like rain
Sing a song of love and loss
The passion and the pain
Sing a song of love and loss
Let me feel my heart again

Those lyrics from @greengrassgirl are perfect for this soulful, bluesy classic...👏👏👏
powerful vocals . I think the bridge is my favorite part. Great collaboration. Two thumbs up to the both of you.
Any other takers?
