[Bb] [Db] [Eb]
For a bad [Bbm] design, [Eb] can't remember
Either had [Ebm] to [Bb] fly or [Gb] [Eb]
[Eb] cut inside
Standing at the [Bb] old turnpike
[Eb] Down [Ebm] in Mississippi
[Eb] Down in Mississippi
[Ebm] [Eb] Down in Mississippi
Where I was born
[Ab] Down in [Eb] Mississippi
Where [Ab] I [Ebm] come from
[Eb] Nothing against Mississippi
Also the [Ab] home [Bb] of the wise
[Ab] [Eb] I feel just like a lucky man
Get away [Abm] with my [Bb] life

Way down in Mississippi

If you shoot him, you [Bb] go to jail

but not maybe
Nobody [Gb] needed no [Bb] better
Way down [Ebm] in Mississippi
[Eb] Way down in Mississippi
Down in Mississippi
Where I was [Abm] born
[Eb] Down in Mississippi
Where [Ebm] I come from Yeah!
