Mississippi Woman Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
[D]Mississippi woman,
with your long black hair
Gee I really miss you baby
and I wish that you were here
How [G]you used to love me woman,
every lonely night
With your [D]lips so tender baby,
and your eyes so bright
[A]Thought I'd write a letter
just to let you know
Mis[D]sissippi woman, [A]baby,
that I love you so, [D]child
Got into some trouble down in Mexico
Robbed a man in San Juan
and I shot a guy called Joe
[G]Now I'm being hunted
and the law is on my trail
[D]Next time I write you, woman,
I guess I'll be in jail
[A]Mississippi woman, try to understand
[D]Please don't [G]sit around
and wait [A]for this [D]lonely man
[G]Caught me in Kentucky,
the judge gave me a dime
[D]Bought a hacksaw from a trustee
and I got away that time
[A]Right now I'm in Florida
on my way to Tennessee
[D]Mississippi woman, baby,
[A]save your [D]love for me,
[G]child[D]
[A][G][A][D]
Mississippi woman,
with your long black hair
Gee, I really miss you, baby,
and I wish that you were here
[G]How you used to love me, woman,
every lonely night
[D]With your lips so tender, baby,
and your eyes so bright
[A]Thought I'd write a letter just to let you
Missis[D]sippi woman, baby,
that I love you so,
[D]Mississippi woman,
Mississippi woman
Mississippi woman,
Mississippi woman
Mississippi woman,
Mississippi woman
