Wish We Were Back In Missouri

VERSE(1) D G D Don't the steamships sail real slow D G A Ain't you tired of them Broadway shows G D A D This Paris dress don't look its best G D Worn on the woman of a man G A Who gets his money dealing death CHORUS (1) D G I wish we were back in Missouri D Where the cottonwoods bend in the breeze G I wish we were back in Missouri D Hear the nightbirds singing in the trees G I wish we were back in Missouri D Ploughing land and praying for rain A G D Oh Jesse, take me home - let's start all over again VERSE(2) D G D What made you shoot Cashier Sheets D G A And that banking man in the Russelville streets G D A D Don't you ever fear those widows' tears G D How the blood runs cold in your veins G A In the past few years CHORUS (2) I wish we were back in Missouri Simple people in a simple land I wish we were back in Missouri Remember those childhood plans I wish we were back in Missouri Where we know just who are our friends Oh Jesse, take me home - let's start all over again VERSE (3) Jesse, something's changed in you Blood now stains the flag you flew Where's the man who took a stand 'Don't hurt nobody but take all you can' cHORUS (3) I wish we were back in Missouri Where the cottonwoods bend in the breeze I wish we were back in Missouri Hear the nightbirds singing in the trees I wish we were back in Missouri Ploughing land and praying for rain Oh Jesse, take me home - Let's start all over again I wish we were back in Missouri
