_ [Ab] _ _ Moonlight [Db] Mississippi _ [Ab] is a whistle [Db]-stop town. _
[Ab] _ They take in the _ sidewalks [Bb] when the [Eb] sun goes down.
_ [Gb] _ It's slow [Ab] as [Ebm] molasses _ [Bbm] that [Dbm] drips from a can. _
_ [Fm] But Moonlight [Am] Mississippi _ is [Eb] the promised [Em] land. _
_ [Ab] With their deep [Db] south talking, _ [Ab] that's so [Db] pleasant to hear. _
_ [Ab] Like corn on [Fm] a cob, _
[D] it's mighty sweet on the [Eb] ear. _
_ [Gb] There's just [C] seven houses _ and [Db] one [Ebm] yellow hound. _
For [Fm] Moonlight [B] Mississippi _ [Bb] is a [Eb] whistle [Ab]-stop town. _ _
[Bb] _ _ Down [C] round the levee [F] where _ _ magnolias bloom,
[Bb]
I've never seen [Db] such a place in [Bm] my life.
_ [Ab] _ _ _
[Gm] The air gets [E] so heavy _ [F] with the [Cm] sweet [F] perfume,
_ _ [Eb]
You can [Cm] cut [F] it up [B]
with [Db] a knife.
_ [Eb] _ _ _ [Ab]
At night on each [Dbm] plantation, _ _
[Eb] cotton [D] gleams so [Db] dawn white. _
[Ab] Stars [Eb] go [C] on vacation, _
[Fm] folks [E] don't need [Eb] a light.
[Fm] The trains don't [Ebm] stop at moonlight [Db] _ unless they're [Gb] flagged down.
[Ab] For Moonlight [Gbm] _ Mississippi _ is a [Eb] whistle-stop [Ab] town. _
_ _ _ _ _ [Db] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [F] _ [Bbm] _ _ [D] _
_ _ [Cm] _ Moonlight [B] Mississippi _
_ [Eb] is a whistle [Db]-stop town.
