Along The Mississippi

G7                 F      
When we were young along the 
        C
Mississippi
G7             F               C
Life was never lonely way back then
     Am        Em    A7          
We'd meet each other down along 
   F
the dirt road
    G7           F               
And go for walks along the river 
C
bend

  G7                 F       
I bought some ground along the 
       C
Mississippi
G7                 F              
And told you of my plans that lay 
C
ahead
    Am       Em       A7         
But you were dreaming all about 
   F
big city
    G7             F              
And far off places in the books 
  C
you read

[Chorus]
         E7               F       
Now when leaves fall down along 
       C
the Mississippi
  E7              F               
I look back north into the chilly 
G7
wind
  Am       Em        A7           
I wait and watch for you along the 
 F
dirt road
    G7               F           
And wonder if you're coming back 
C
again


[Verse]
  G7            F       
I built a house along the 
       C
Mississippi
G7                  F        
And longing for the day when we 
         C
would wed
  Am         Em  A7             
I waited for you down along the dirt
F
 road
    G7             F              
But far off places won your heart 
C
instead


[Chorus]
         E7               F       
Now when leaves fall down along 
       C
the Mississippi
  E7              F               
I look back north into the chilly 
G7
wind
  Am       Em        A7           
I wait and watch for you along the 
 F
dirt road
    G7               F           
And wonder if you're coming back 
C
again
    G7               F           
And wonder if you're coming back 
Am   F C
again
