Capo 2nd fret
Standard (EADGBE)
It keeps raining down the tear stained face of this lonely town
And I drown
And I keep reaching for one good reason why you said goodbye and turned
around
Oh your leaving me in this empty state
And all I see are dark clouds as you drive away
Mississippis crying baby
Mississippis sad
I think we just figured out that you aint coming back
The sky can see you leaving and it cant hold back the tears.
Oh it's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dying
Mississippis crying
Mississippis crying
(Same as first verse/chorus)
I keep looking for headlights shinning in this driveway but they dont shine
And I keep thinking this crazy storm will drive you home but not this time
Oh my only wish is to change the weather
Are you coming back or is it gonna rain forever?
Mississippis crying baby
Mississippis sad
I think we just figured out that you aint coming back
The sky can see you leaving and it cant hold back the tears.
Oh it's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dieing
Mississippis crying
Mississippis crying
Where you going baby, whats in Tennessee?
You never said a word about Memphis, so who is she?
It keeps raining down the tear stained face of this lonely town
And I drown
(same as other choruses)
Mississippi's crying baby
Mississippi's sad
I think we just figured out that you aint coming back
The sky can see you leaving and it cant hold back the tears.
Mississippi , Mississippi,
Mississippis crying
Mississippis crying
Oh Mississippis crying
Mississippis crying (oh oh oh)
