Capo 6th fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Intro

I had a sister named Emma Mississippi

 is a river that floats in the states.

Just like the memory in the wisdom of the water

 our souls were connected in so many ways, well

Even though we haven't talked in a while

 I'm still waiting for the day to come when you will arrive

 I'm sorry if I ruined happy times we've been through

 but no wonder, if I can spend my days without you and

I had a mother, and her name is Carolina

 Carolina is a state in the states

I think there's fifty but there's only one mother

 and she won't even look in my face, well

You know I'd give it all to be loved by you again

 but everything's my fault so I'll carry the blame

 But now I'm growing, I get older while the days pass by

 soon I'll be dying, thinking you won't look me in the eyes

 And it's sad

 so sad

 Family values

 that we had, it's just a memory

 in your mind, what you gone bad

 There's no love

I had a father named Mr Engelbert

 and Engelbert Humperdinck sings really good

I haven't heard him but I hear my fathers voice

 it's in the dreams where things are like they should

I miss your love which came naturally

 sometimes I cry, when I think about how things used to be

 Well at least come and visit me for only one time

 daddy I love you but I know you won't pay me no mind

 And it's sad

 it's so sad

 Family values

 that we had

 It's just a memory in your mind

 we've gone bad

 There's no love, no

no
