Standard (EADGBE)

They call her Mississippi

 But she don't flow to me

 Spends her light on the Bayou

 But she don't come to see

 She's the one that makes my dreams

 They call her Mississippi

But she don't flow to me

The shape of her horizon

Makes the morning sun

When she puts her eyes on

 Each and anyone

 She's the one that makes me fall

 Midnight moon shines through it all

She's the one that makes me fall

Midnight moon shines through it all

She's the one that makes my dreams

They call her Mississippi

But she don't flow to me

They call her Mississippi

But she don't flow to me
