D             A       G
well it's a long way from Star, Mississippi
        D              A         G
to the big stage i'm singin on tonight
       D             A               G
and sometimes the butterflies still get me
         A         Em
when i'm in the spotlight


chorus:
            D                    A
Cause a Mississippi girl don't change her ways
 G                     A     
just cause everybody knows her name
 D                        A            G 
ain't big headed from a little bit of fame
    D                   A
i still like wearin my old ball cap
 G             A
ride my kids around piggy back
 G
they might know me all around the world
      A                            D
but ya'll i'm still a Mississippi girl



        D            A         G
well i spent a few weeks in California
             D           A          G 
they put my face on the big movie screen
                D            A              G
but that don't mean i've forgotten where i came from
           
           A           Em
thats just me chasin dreams, yeah
