Bb
Where you can hear a country song from far
F7
And someone plays the honky-tonk guitar
Bb
Where all the lights will go out one by one
C F7
The people join the sun and the wind takes it away

Where the mississippi roads down to the sea
F7
And lovers found the place they'd like to be
Bb
How many times before the song was ending
F7 Bb
Love and understanding, everywhere around

Mississippi, i'll remember you,
Whenever i should go away

That i will be in river again

Mississippi, you'll be on my mind,

Everytime i hear this song

Mississippi roll along, Until the end of time

And everytime when summernights are falling
F7 Bb
I always will be calling dreams of yesterday
