[G]
[F]
[C] I grew up in a little town named after another
[G] Catchin' bass and cuttin' grass is how I spent my summers
[F] I know it sounds cliche, but it's how I was [C] raised
And I got my first guitar from a pawn shop off of Poplar
[G] Picked up Sweet Home Alabama and Smoke on the Water
[F] And that's what got me out, it's crazy thinkin' now
[C] I'm a mockingbird, singin' songs that sound like [G] other songs you've heard
Like Friday nights and headlights [Dm] on some back road red dirt
Now Mississippi's home, [F] I've always been a mockingbird
But now I'm a mockingbird with a [C] microphone
Found myself a contract down on 16th Avenue
[G] Writin' songs for anyone about anything I knew
[F] And I've come a long, long way, but one thing hasn't changed
[C] I'm a mockingbird, singin' songs that sound like [G] other songs you've heard
Like Friday nights and headlights [Dm] on some back road red dirt
Now Mississippi's home, [F] I've always been a mockingbird
But now I'm a mockingbird with a [C] microphone
Mockingbird with a [G] microphone
With a [Dm] microphone
With a microphone
With a [C] microphone
[Eb]
[C] Do this, do that, that shirt, [Eb] this hat
Don't forget your [C] smile, kiss the ring once in a while
Don't say those words, put down your [Eb] finger
Throw in a slow love song or [F] two, well, fuck [C] that, fuck you good
The way I sing, make my [Eb] feet pretty, make my feet music to [F] your ears
When these waves roll through your city, my last rain is [C] all you'll hear
And I refuse to [Eb] be another mockingbird with a [F] microphone
I'll fly the line, let's use two brothers, even if that makes [C] me the crow
The crow, the crow, even if that makes [Eb] me the crow
The crow, [C] the crow, the crow
Well, do that, do this, unclench [Eb] your fist
You're too loud, too proud, it [F] won't work
I'll sell back 25,000 rednecks for my dumb face from their [C] T-shirts
The way I sing, make [Eb] my feet pretty, make my feet music [F] to your ears
When these waves roll through your city, my last rain is [C] all you'll hear
And I refuse to be [Bb] another mockingbird with [F] a microphone
I'll fly the line, let's use two brothers, even if that makes [C] me the crow
The crow, the crow, [D] even if that makes [Eb] me the crow
The crow, [C] the crow, the crow
[Gm]
[Eb] [F]
[C] I'm a mockingbird
Singing songs that sound like other [Eb] songs you've heard
Like a brownie, nice and little, like [F] a brown bread
In that Mississippi home
I'm a waiting band of mockingbirds
The [C] crow
