VERSE:
 F                C
Hey there, Mississippi
                G
Looks like the waters gettin' rough
            F                 C
I picked a hell of a day for fishin'
             G
The way the wind keeps pickin' up
       F            C                G
I know I look crazy on this muddy bank
             F             C                     G
But it's the only place I thought I wouldn't think


CHORUS:
 F                C
Hey there, Mississippi
          G
I know a girl a lot like you
             F                         C
I bet she's tearin' right through the country
              G                           F
And there's nothin' I can do to slow her down

C                     G
 Yeah, love's like a river,
                                     F  C
You can't stop it when it's runnin' out
            G
And headed south

               F      C       G
Like my Mississippi, hey, uh-huh
          F      C       G
My Mississippi, hey, uh-huh


VERSE:
              F                 C
I know all about the ones that get away
   G
If I know anything
                F             C
So it's no surprise I didn't catch
          G
The only bite I had all day

         F            C              G
Well, I wonder if my luck will ever change
        F                  C
Is the chance of her ever comin' back
     G
Anything like the chance of rain?


CHORUS:
 F                C
Hey there, Mississippi
          G
I know a girl a lot like you
             F                         C
I bet she's tearin' right through the country
              G                           F
And there's nothin' I can do to slow her down

C                     G
 Yeah, love's like a river,
                                     F  C
You can't stop it when it's runnin' out
            G
And headed south

               F      C       G
Like my Mississippi, hey, uh-huh
          F      C       G
My Mississippi, hey, uh-huh


CHORUS:
 F                C
Hey there, Mississippi
          G
I know a girl a lot like you
             F                         C
I bet she's tearin' right through the country
             G                            F                C
And there's nothin' I can do to slow her down, turn her around
               G
Love's like a river,
                                     F C
You can't stop it when it's runnin' out
            G
And headed south

               F      C       G
Like my Mississippi, hey, uh-huh
          F      C       G
My Mississippi, hey, uh-huh

               F      C       G
Said my Mississippi, hey, uh-huh
                F      C       G
She's my Mississippi, hey, uh-huh
