Standard (EADGBE)

 (Intro: )

Across the river an owl was callin'

As he slowly made his rounds

A midnight dew was softly falling

 On the ground, on the ground

She was standing by the campfire

I watched her move into the dance

And when she looked at me with those sexy eyes

They seemed to say, "Hey boy, d'ya wanna take a chance?"

Bayou woman you make me feel it

Dancing barefoot in the night

Moving softly in the shadows

 In the pale moonlight

(Guitar solo: the chord progression is probably the same as in the verse but I'm

not sure, I'll figure it out later)

Behind the clouds, the moon was slipping

I felt her move into my arms

She said, "Are you into skinny dippin'?"

I said, "Anything baby, to keep warm"

Bayou woman you make me feel it

Runnin' barefoot in the night

Standing golden by the river

In the pale moonlight

(Guitar solo)

Bayou woman you make me feel it

Dancin' barefoot in the night

Moving softly in the shadows

In the pale, pale moonlight
