Missisipi

E                      A
Every step of the way, we walk the 
line
E                       A
Your days are numbered, so are mine
E                  A
Time is piling up, we struggle and 
we stray
E               A    B7    
We're all boxed in, nowhere to 
         E
escape

E                     A
City's just a jungle, more games to 
play
E                           A
Trapped in the heart of it, tryin' 
to get away
E                            A
I was raised in the country, I been 
working in the town
E                       A        
I been in trouble ever since I 
B7               E
set my suitcase down

E                    A
Got nothing for you, I had nothing 
before
E                            A
Don't even have anything for myself 
anymore
E                 A
Sky full of fire, came pouring down
E                  A     B7     
Nothing you can sell me, I'll 
           E
see you around

E                           A
All my powers of expression and 
thoughts so sublime
E                          A
Could never do you justice in reason
 or rhyme
E              A
Only one thing I did wrong
E       A             B7           E
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

E                             
Well, the devil's in the alley, 
  A
mule's in the stall
E                       A
Say anything you wanna, I have heard
 it all
E                               A
I was thinking about the things that
 Rosie said
E               A               
I was dreaming I was sleeping in
B7         E
 Rosie's bed

E                           A
Walking through the leaves, falling 
from the trees
E                       A
Feeling like a stranger nobody sees
E                      A
So many things that we never will 
undo
E             A      B7          E
I know you're sorry, I'm sorry too

E                           A
Some people will offer you their 
hand and some won't
E                      A
Last night I knew you, tonight I 
don't
E                         A
I need something strong to distract 
my mind
E                   A      B7   
I'm gonna look at you 'til my 
          E
eyes go blind

E                         A
Well I got here following the 
southern star
E                         A
I crossed that river just to be 
where you are
E              A
Only one thing I did wrong
E       A             B7           E
Stayed in Mississippi a day too long

E                           A
Well my ship's been split to 
splinters and it's sinking fast
E                          A
I'm drowning in the poison, got no 
future, got no past
E                          A
But my heart is not weary, it's 
light and it's free
E                            A   
I've got nothing but affection 
           B7                E
for all those who sailed with me

E                   A
Everybody's moving, if they ain't 
already there
E                       A
Everybody's got to move somewhere
E                   A
Stick with me baby, stick with me 
anyhow
E                        
Things should start to get 
           A  B7            E
interesting right about now

E                   A
My clothes are wet, tight on my skin
E                               A
Not as tight as the corner that I 
painted myself in
E                   A
I know that fortune is waiting to be
 kind
E                          A B7 
So give me your hand and say 
          E
you'll be mine

E                               A
Well, the emptiness is endless, cold
 as the clay
E                        A
You can always come back, but you 
can't come back all the way
E              A
Only one thing I did wrong
E       A             B7           E
