Mississippi Moon(Chords)

	        Intro: 
G    C 
F  F#  G  /  F  F#  G  /  F  F#  G 

    C              D 
You tell me you're lonely 
  Bm            Em 
I know how you feel 
        C         D 
Leaning up at the bones 
        Bm         Em 
Rocking back on my heals 
        C              D 
She's a wild bird that wandered 
    G         Em 
Too easy, too stray 
  C               D 
I knew she had to lose me 
   Bm           Cmaj7 
To find her own way 

(Chorus) 
Em         C              G 
Oh, curry*, I'll be coming soon 
            G     G7  C            F    F#     G 
--> Through the Lou'siana pines to the Mississippi moon  (x2)<-- 


  C           D 
A wave on the ocean 
 Bm              Em 
A whirlwind on the sea 
  C        D 
I took a notion 
   Bm                Em 
That her ship would not land(?) 
   C            D 
So light me a candle 
   G            Em 
In the forest so deep 
   C              D 
Honey, lay down beside me 
  Bm              Cmaj7 
Angels rock us to sleep 

(Chorus) 
Em         C              G 
Oh, curry*, I'll be coming soon 
            G     G7  C            F    F#     G 
--> Through the Lou'siana pines to the Mississippi moon (x2) <--  

F    F#     G       F    F#     G 

* prepare, make one presentable, spruce up
