Mississippi Nuthin

D


[Verse 1]
            D
Your joy is killing me
               G
I don't have anything
  Bm                               
Remember when we used to wear each 
        A
other's clothes?
                D
Yeah, I've been struggling
           G
But I know lots of things
              Bm                   
And I got an idea that's gonna turn
                A
 on the money hose


[Chorus 1]
G                            A
Choking on a joke, tryin' to keep it
 light
        D                   Bm
I could never quite get the timing 
right
    G                             
But you, you'll never know how it 
A
feels
       G  A  Bm  D  G
I got ideas
     A          D
M-hm-mm, no one knows


[Verse 2]
               D
We watched you on TV
Continues after the ad
         G
At the Recovery
    Bm                             
The sound was good but you're 
            A
always lookin' down
                D
Don't take this personally
            G
But man, if that was me
              Bm                   
I'd make more eye contact with the 
                       A
camera, kinda work the crowd


[Chorus 2]
    G                              
You probably think I'd call to say 
     A
that you were right
        D                   Bm
But I'm blackout drunk in a cotton 
field on a Friday night
G                                 
And I got nothing to do but tell 
         A
you how I feel
       G  A  Bm  D  G
I got ideas
      A              D
Oo-oo-oo, so watch out


[Verse 3]
    D
You always think I'm bluffin'
              G
Like I'm some kind of Mississippi 
nuthin'
          Bm                       
But I was first-string quarterback,
                     A
 drove you everywhere
                  D
Or that time when Ronnie hit you so 
hard
             G
You tried to drive and wrecked your 
car
             Bm                    
And I had to help you wash the 
              A
blood out of your hair


[Bridge]
            G        A
'Cause I've always been
       D     Bm
Like a go-to friend
                 G
Well, maybe it's true
                 A                 
Maybe I'm just a blue-collar 
     D  Bm
version of you
    G       A     D
O-o-oh, o-o-oh, o-oh
    Bm      G     A
O-o-oh, o-o-oh, o-oh


[Other]
            D
You're on a winning streak
               G
But I got laid off last week
              Bm                   
But I got a plan that's gonna turn 
        A
it all around
      G  A  Bm  D  G
I got ideas
       A
I got ideas
       D
No one knows
