D D G G
[Verse 1]
D
It keeps raining down the tear stained face
G D D G
Of this lonely town and I drowned
D
And I keep reaching for one good reason
G D D G
Why you said goodbye and turned around
[Pre-chorus]
D Em G G
Oh, you're leaving me in this empty state
Em A
And all I see are dark clouds as you drive away
[Chorus]
D A G
Mississippi's crying, baby, Mississippi's sad
D G
I think we just figured out you ain't coming back
D G
The sky can see you leaving and it can't hold back the tears
Em D A
Oh, it's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying
D D G
Mississippi's crying,
D D G
Mississippi's crying
[Verse 2]
D
The night keeps looking for a headlight shining
G D D G
In this driveway but they don't shine
D
And I keep thinking this crazy storm
G D D G
Will drive you home but not this time
[Pre-chorus]
D Em G
Oh, my only wish is to change the weather
Em A
Are you coming back or is it gonna rain forever?
[Chorus]
D A G
Mississippi's crying, baby, Mississippi's sad
D G
I think we just figured out you ain't coming back
D G
The sky can see you leaving and it can't hold back the tears
Em D A
Oh, it's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying
D D G
Mississippi's crying,
D D G
Mississippi's crying
[Bridge]
Em
Where you going baby
G Em
Whats in Tennessee-e
A
You never said a word about Memphis so, who is she?
[Outro]
D
It keeps raining down the tear stained face
G D D G
Of this lonely town and I drowned
