Where you can hear a country song from far
                                    F7
And someone plays the honky-tonk guitar
                                        Bb
Where all the lights will go out one by one
                    C                         F7
The people join the sun and the wind takes it away
          Bb
Where the mississippi roads down to the sea
                                          F7
And lovers found the place they'd like to be
                                   Bb   
How many times before the song was ending
               F7                   Bb 
Love and understanding, everywhere around
  
      F7                   Bb
Mississippi, i'll remember you, 

Whenever i should go away
F7
I'll be longing for the day, 
       C                 F7    Eb   Dm  Cm   Bb
That i will be in river again
     F7                      Bb    Bb7
Mississippi, you'll be on my mind, 
Eb                    Bb  
Everytime i hear this song
                  F7                     Bb
Mississippi roll along, Until the end of time

Bb
Now the country song for ever lost it´s soul
                                        F7
When the guitar player turned to rock & roll
                                    Bb
And everytime when summernights are falling
                 F7                      Bb
I always will be calling dreams of yesterday
