Mississippi Woman Chords by Waylon Jennings

[G] _ _ _ [D] _ [A] _ _ _ [G] _
[D] _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ The reflection [G] of trees [A] are cut [E] by the bow [A] of my finger
_ And splattered [D] by the paddle [E] of my [A] eager hand
_ _ _ That Mississippi [G] _
woman [A] _ is [E] waving [A] over yonder
_ _ _ Waving [D] her lantern to [E] her [A] Louisiana man _ _
_ _ [G] How I love that Mississippi [A] _
_ woman
_ [G] How I love that Mississippi [A] girl
_ _ [G] How I love that Mississippi [A] _ _ woman
_ [G] [D] But [A] her [G] heart [D] does not belong _ [E] to me _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] The lantern [G] light and the [A] moonbeams
Are dancing [E] patterns [A] on the water
_ She _ don't [D] seem to realize [E] I've learned her [A] secret ways _
_ My jealous [G] mind is a-thinking
As [A] I paddle through [E] the sleeping [A] _ alligators
She _ don't [D] know I know about [E] her Louisiana [A] man
_ _ _ [G]
How I love that Mississippi [A] _ _ woman
_ [G] How I love that Mississippi [A] _
_ girl
_ [G] How I love that [A] Mississippi _ woman
_ [G] But [D] [A] her [G] heart [D] does not belong [E]
to me _ _ _ _ _ _
The [A] reflection [G] of trees [A] are cut by [E] the bow [A] of my finger _ _
Splattered _ [D] by the paddle _ [E]
of my shaky [A] hand
_ _ The silence [G] from behind me [A] is alive with [E] the splashing [A] _ alligators
_ _ And the lantern [D] light is blinking [E] on the bottom end [A]
sand
_ _ _ [G] How I love that Mississippi [A] _ _ woman
_ [G] How I love that Mississippi [A] _ girl _
_ [G] _ Don't miss that Mississippi [A] _
_ woman
_ [G] [A] Though her [G] heart [D] did not belong _ [E] to me _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G]
How I love that [A] Mississippi _ _ woman
