  			I: 

F           F7           G 
I'm growing tired of the big city lights 
C                        F 
Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights 
A#                    D            Gm 
In all my dreams I am roaming once more 
G                       C          C7 
Back to my home on that old river shore 


F            F7    A#            A#7 
I am sad and weary far away from home 
F               C          F 
I miss the Mississippi and you dear 
F                 F7       A#              A#7 
Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door

Miss the Mississippi and you 

II:

I keep roaming the wide world over 
E                G        G7 
Always alone and blue, so blue 
F                F7       A#             A#7 
Nothing seems to cheer me under heaven's dome 
F              C         F 
Miss the Mississippi and you 


A#           A#        F             F7 
Memories are bringing, happy days of young 
F              C         F 
Miss the Mississippi and you, dear 
F                 F7       A#              A#7 
Mocking birds are singing 'round the cabin door 
F             C          F 
Miss old Mississippi and you

       A#                     F 
I keep roaming the wide world over 
E                G        G7 
Always alone and blue, so blue 
A#             A#7 
Longing for my homeland 
F           F7 
Muddy water shore 
F             C          F 
Miss the Mississippi and you
