_ _ [Ab] I _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ _ [Db] _ traded a 57 [Bbm] Chevy for my first guitar [Ab] and daddy said I was crazy [Db] cause that was a hell
of a car.
When I played love me tender [Bbm] on that fender [Ab] and the music came pouring [Db] out of my hands and heart.
[Bbm] He knew it was worth it [Db] and so did I [Gb] cause sometimes some [Ab] things don't have a price.
_ _ [Eb] _ _ [Db] So I learned to play [Bb] all my hero songs [Ab] and I finally got around [Gb] to riding a few of my own.
[Db] The songs got better, [Bb] I put a band [Bbm] together [Ab] and we played our first gig [Gb] at a little club in Macomb.
_ [Bbm] When I walked on [Fm] stage and opened my mouth [Gb] I started to sing and [Ab] you came pouring [Db] out.
Oh _ [Bbm] _ _ _ [Ebm] Mississippi, you [Db] know how hard it [Gb] was for me [Ab] to leave.
[Db] _
Oh _ [Bbm] _ _ Mississippi, [Ebm] I miss [Db] you, I [Gb] hope you miss [Ab] me. _
My [Db] Mississippi.
[Ab] _ _ _ _
[Bbm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ _ _ [Gb] _ _
_ [Db] _ _ _ _ _ [Db] So I packed my Delta [Bb] Dreams, came to Music City, [Ab] brought a whole lot of me, [Gb] a little
Presley and some Twig.
_ [Db] _
Came here to make it, [Bbm] but if I don't I can take it.
[Ab] _
Just as long [Gb] as I have you with me.
[Bbm] I know I'm gonna be [Db] strong enough [Gb] cause I've got your mud [Ab] in my _ [Db] blood.
Oh _ [Bbm] _ Mississippi, _ [Ebm] you know how hard it [Gb] was for me [Ab] to leave. _
Oh [Bbm] _ _ Mississippi, [Ebm] I miss [Db] you, I [Gb] hope you miss _ [Eb] me. _
[Ab] My [Db] Mississippi. _ _ _ _
_ _ [Abm] You know I have [Gb] four first loves.
[Db] That's [N] God. _ _ _
