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

CHORUS:

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
F             C          F
Miss the Mississippi and you

II:

       A#                     F
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

CHORUS:

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

III:

       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
