^ELate one night behind corn whiskey ^EI fell asleep with a guitar in my hand ^EI dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi And the ^Gblues came ^Awalkin' in like a ^Eman ^EWithout a word I passed that guitar over ^EHe tuned it up like I'd never seen

A crooked smile was his expression

Then he ^Gclosed his eyes and^A began to sing ^E [Chorus] ^EOh Lord why have you forsaken me ^EGot me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be ^EOh Lord why have you forsaken me ^EGot me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be

[Verse 2]

^EWhen I woke up I looked into the mirror ^EI saw no reflection for a while ^EBut as my eyes came into focus I ^Grecog^Anized that crooked ^Esmile

[Chorus]

^EOh Lord why have you forsaken me ^EGot me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be ^EOh Lord why have you forsaken me ^EGot me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be

[Verse 3]

^ELate one night behind corn whiskey ^EI fell asleep with a guitar in my hand ^EI dreamed about the ghosts of Mississippi And the ^Gblues came ^Awalkin' like a ^Eman

[Chorus]

^EOh Lord why have you forsaken me ^EGot me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be ^EOh Lord why have you forsaken me ^EGot me down in Mississippi where I don't want to be
