[VERSE]
[G] Wellx the Mississippi flows through the southland
[C]Inx many a [Em] songx and [Am] rhymex
[C] Andx I guess I’d do well ta’ [G] visitx the delta
[C]Somedayx if I get the [D7] time.x
But[G] inx the land of sky blue waters
[C]Shex loved me then she [Em] turnedx me [Am] loosex
With the[C] otherx end of the [G] Mississippix [D] Riverx [G] xxx blues [D7] xxxx
[G]Theyx got the blues down in Louisiana
[C]theyx sing them up in [Em] Memphisx [Am] townx
[C] wherex the muddy water flows
and[G] everybodyx knows
Its the[C] cradlex of that mournful [D7] soundx
ah, but[G] somewherex up near Lake Itasca
where the[C] mightyx river [Em] startsx to [Am] movex
I got the[C] otherx end of the [G] Mississippix [D] Riverx [G] bluesx [D7] xxxx
They got the[D7] honeysucklex vines
I got the[Gmaj7] lonesomex pines
They got[D7] banjosx on the levee
I got a[Gmaj7] heartxx that’s cold and heavy
Yeah it[C] allx ends up in [Em] Newx [Am] Orleansx
But[C] thisx is where it all [D7] beginsx
You can[G] travelx the wide world over
[C]anywherex you [Em] carex to [Am] xxxx roam
But[C] ifx you ever go ta’ [G] Northernx Minnesota
[C]Betterx leave your heart at [D7] homex
‘cause she’ll[G] lovex then she’ll leave you crying
and[C] brotherx you’ll be [Em] introdux [Am] cedx
to the[C] otherx end of the [G] Mississippix [D] Riverx [G] bluesx [D7] xxxx
They got[D7] Magnoliax Trees,
Sweet[Gmaj7] southernx breeze
I got[D7] icex and snow,
Twenty-[Gmaj7]sixxxxx below
but it[C] allx ends up in [Em] xxxx New [Am] Orleansx
C[D7] xxxx (Hold and pause)
But this is where it all begins
You can[G] travelx the wide world over
[C]anywherex you’d [Em] carex to [Am] roamx
But[C] ifx you ever go ta’ [G] Northernx Minnesota
[C]Betterx leave your heart at [D7] homex
‘cause she’ll[G] lovex then she’ll leave you crying
with a[C] feelingx that you [Em] can’tx shake [Am] loosex
Its the[C] otherx end of the [G] Mississippix [D] Riverx [G] xxx blues [G] xxx
Its the[C] otherx end of the [G] Mississippix [D] Riverx [G] xxx blues[Gmaj7]xxxxxxx
