Artist: The Steeldrivers
[VERSE]
[C]I still see tail [G]lights in the [D]dark
[C]Smell your [G]perfume in the [D]air
[C]This is where a [G]fool might fall [D]apart
Mm but I ain't [A]goin' there
[CHORUS]
I won't go [C]down in a burst of [G]flames
I won't stay [C]locked up in your [G]chains
Yeah it [C]hurts but it ain't [G]strong enough to [A]whip me
I might [C]stagger and I might [G]fall
But I won't [C]beg and I won't [G]crawl
A [C]tear or two might [G]fall into my shot of [A]whiskey
But I won't [C]cry no [G]Mississ[D]ippi
[VERSE]
[C]There's nowhere to [G]hide in this small [D]town
[C]I know our [G]paths are bound to [D]cross
[C]Girl I might [G]stand on shaky [D]ground
When I see all [A]that I lost
[CHORUS]
But I won't go [C]down in a burst of [G]flames
I won't stay [C]locked up in your [G]chains
Yeah it [C]hurts but it ain't [G]strong enough to [A]whip me
I might [C]stagger and I might [G]fall
But I won't [C]beg and I won't [G]crawl
A [C]tear or two might [G]fall into my shot of [A]whiskey
But I won't [C]cry no [G]Mississ[D]ippi
No no
[VERSE]
I hate to [C]rain to on your [G]parade
I hate to [C]make your bubble [G]bust
It's going to take [C]more tears than you can [G]make
To make my [A]heart turn into rust
[CHORUS]
I won't go [C]down in a burst of [G]flames
I won't stay [C]locked up in your [G]chains
Girl you [C]hurt me but you [G]ain't strong enough to [A]whip me
Ooh I might [C]stagger and I might [G]fall
But I won't [C]beg and I won't [G]crawl
A [C]tear or two might [G]fall into my shot of [A]whiskey
But I won't [C]cry no [G]Mississ[D]ippi
Oh I won't [C]cry no [G]Mississ[D]ippi mmhm
