Capo 1st fret

Standard (EADGBE)

Here we go again

 On this telephone line

Everytime we talk I always end up cryin

You’re always telling me about what I’m missing

If I came back there I’d only end up wishing

 Mama I can come home but I can’t stay long

 Gotta make a little money tryin to sing my song

 My heart’s still there even though I’m gone

 I’ve put my roots deep in the ground of that tiny town

I can remember all the things you’ve said

I hear your sweet voice talking in my head

I’m a Mississippi girl, no I won’t forget it

But if I don’t stay here I know I’m gonna to regret it

 Mama I can come home but I can’t stay long

 Gotta make a little money tryin’ to sing my song

 My hearts still there even though I’m gone

 I’ve put my roots deep in the ground of that tiny town

 I feel your arms around me like it's yesterday

 I’m still daddy’s little girl and I wont go away

 You know that I’m a dreamer and I’ve got to do this, gotta do this

 But know that I wish

 That I could come home

 I just can’t stay long

 Gotta make a little money tryin’ to sing my songs

 My hearts still there even though I’m gone

 I put my roots deep in the ground

 Of that tiny town

 Of that tiny town

 Of that tiny town
