_ _ _ [Am] _ _ [D] _ _ _
[B] _ _ [E] Oh the day when I was [F] born, daddy [Am] sat down to cry, _ [F] at the march just as plain as day,
could [F#] not be denied.
[B] _ [C] See the [E] king party, but, [F] road lord it dies, ace of spades behind, see him not [E] take it twice.
_ _ _ _ [C] _ [F#]
Mississippi [Am] uptown, to the moon, yellow [G] baby I'm gone goodbye,
[F] half a cup [C] of rock and rye, farewell to you all southern skies, [Am] I'm on my way.
[E] On my way.

See the thing you [E] got to live [F] for, is what you left behind,
get yourself a pound of char, [D] or you'll see that silver mine,
_ [C]
lost my [E] boots in transit lane, [F] a pile of [Am] smug letters,
_ [F]
never reach out to my feet, and pray for [E] better weather, _
_ [A] half stiff, Mississippi uptown, to the moon,
[F] yellow [C] baby I'm gone [F] goodbye, half a [C] cup of rock and [F] rye,
farewell to [C] you all southern skies, I'm [Am] on my [E] way.
On my way.

_ _ _ [C] _ [E] When your ship comes in, [F]
first man [Am] takes the sail,
[F] second takes me [G] after deck, [D] the third, the planks and rails,
[C] what's the [E] point of calling shots, [F] it's queuing [Am] straight in line,
_ [F] you've all speed up, start [G] running for, [F] and no one's [E] got time,
_ _ [A] half stiff, [G]
Mississippi [Am] uptown, to the moon,
[F] yellow [C] baby I'm gone [F] goodbye, half a [G] cup of rock and [F] rye,
farewell to [C] you all southern [Am] skies, I'm on my [E] way.
On my way.
