(Yodel) The Mississ^Cippi R^G7iver Bl^Cues Oh you M^Cississippi River, with wa^C7ters so deep and w^Gide, My tho^Cughts of you keep rising, j^G7ust like an evening t^Cide. I^F'm just like a seagull that's left the s^Cea, Oh your m^Guddy waters, they k^G7eep on callin' ^Cme

Bridge:

I'm gonna p^Fack my grip and head that way, You'll see me ha^Cngin' 'round again someday. 'Cos I know th^Gat's the only way to lose, The M^G7ississippi River Bl^Cues. (Yodel) The Mississ^Cippi R^G7iver Bl^Cues.

I've often r^Cidden on your bosom, from Me^C7mphis down to New Orl^Geans, Dreaming o^Cver muddy waters, flo^G7wing through familiar sc^Cenes. And when I h^Fear the whistle of an old steam b^Coat, Down that M^Gississippi River, ag^G7ain I'm going to fl^Coat.
