[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
