[Verse 1]
With friCends around and C7even pals that I kFnow are tGrue
GStill I'm lonely, hoG7mesick and bClue
TChere's no one who can cC7heer me when I'm aFll alone
GLonging for my MG7ississippi hCome
[Chorus]
CWay down in the dC7elta oCn that MississC7ippi shGore
GIn that muddy wG7ater, I long to be once mCore
CWhen night shadows cC7reep about aCnd the whippoorwill cAmallS
DYou can hear old mD7ammy shout, "CDome in here, you aGll"
CWay down on the lC7evee, strColling in the pC7ale moon lGight
GYou can see those stG7eamboats and the fiGelds of snowy whC+ite
That's a fFeeling I can't lose that muddy wCater in my shoes
GWhen I get those MiG7ssissippi Delta blCues
[Verse 2]
IC long to hear them tC7alk and sing those oFld melodGies
GSwanee River aG7nd Ol' Black JCoe
CThat sweet magnolia peC7rfume floating oFn the breeze
GWay down south is wG7here I long to Cgo
[Chorus]
CWay down in the dC7elta oCn that MississC7ippi shGore
GIn that muddy wG7ater, I long to be once mCore
CWhen night shadows cC7reep about aCnd the whippoorwill cAmallS
DYou can hear old mD7ammy shout, "CDome in here, you aGll"
CWay down on the lC7evee, strColling in the pC7ale moon lGight
GYou can see those stG7eamboats and the fiGelds of snowy whC+ite
That's a fFeeling I can't lose that muddy wCater in my shoes
GWhen I get those MiG7ssissippi Delta blCues
