Chords for C2C Session: Charlie Worsham - Mississippi in July

[C] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ This is the second performance I've had the [Gm] pleasure of getting to do here in [C] the UK.
The other night in the CMA _ _ Songwriters' Round was so much fun!
Were you guys there?
Everybody was there?
Okay, well, I don't know how much you know of my music or not, so if you've got any requests,
I'm here for you, you just holler it out and I will do my best.
_ Or not, but holler it out if you want.
I'm used to people throwing beer bottles and stuff at [D] me in the States, so [C] you can't scare me.
_ Anybody?
[G] Alright, [D] I'm gonna go.
_ Mississippi, alright.
_ _ _ _ _
This is a [F] theme that's developing.
I'm starting all my shows with this song.
But I love that.
I love getting to do that. _ _ _ _
So how many folks did I not get the chance to sing for the other night?
How many am I singing to for the first time?
Okay, _ Charlie Worsham, that's me.
And I grew up in the state of Mississippi, and _ it's in the deep south,
so in the summertime it gets hot and humid. _
And _ it's _ an element of this song here, I guess.

_ _ _ [C] _ [Dm] _ _
_ [F] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
_ [Dm] delta roads, everyone I know
By the cotton fields and railroad _ [F] tracks _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[C] [Dm] It's more than just the heat
Most folks who get the chance to leave [F] don't come back _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] Last time I thought about you in a wedding dress
I would have been holding [F] your _ hand _
_ _ _ [C] _ [F] _ _
[Dm] But at seventeen you promised things that you don't really _
[F] _ understand _ _ _
_ Mississippi _ _ in [Bb] July
_ The magnolia moonlight
The warm wind [Dm] was just right
For staying up all night
[C] And letting love [Bb] fly
_ _ [C] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ _
Mississippi in July
_ _ [C] _ _
_ [Bb] My _ _ _
[C] _ [Dm] heart might as well be one of those cans
Tied to the back of your _ [F] _ limousine _ _
It _ _ _ _ _ [Dm] was hanging by a thread
So I went ahead and cut [F] the string _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] If I could ask you way back when
If you'd take my hand, would you say I [F] do? _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _
Yeah, [Dm] I'm supposed to hope you're happy
But letting go don't feel the way [F] it's supposed _ _ to
[Cm] _ _ _ [Fm] Mississippi in [Bb] July
The _ magnolia moonlight
The warm wind [Dm] was just right
For staying [F] up all night
And letting [Bb] love fly
_ _ [C] _
_ _ [Bb] _ _ Mississippi in _ July _

_ _ _ _ _ _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ The magnolia _ moonlight
The warm wind [Dm] was just right
For staying up [D] all night
Some memories never [Bb] die
_ But _ honeysuckle kisses
If I could live [Dm] on wishes
I'd stay here [D] all the time
_ _ _ [C] _
_ Oh, Mississippi in [Bb] July
_ _ [C] _ _ _
[Bb] _ _ Mississippi in _ July _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Oh, why
_ [C] _ These [Bb] _ _ _ _ _ _
[Dm] _ _ _ _ _ [C] _

By [F] the cotton fields and railroad

_ Man, _ _ thank you so much!
_ [D] _ _
_ _ Man, _ _
