E 
Wasting away on the mighty Mississippi 
E                              B 
Hoping god forgives me for my sins 
B 
Well starlight stained steamboats, 
B                              A#/A 
and a rich man clears his throat 
A                 E 
Took a sip of whiskey from his glass 

E 
The piano plays softly and his daughter screamed, 'get off me' 
E                             B 
His wife she died a few years back 
B 
He drinks and drinks for days 
B                          A#/A 
but the memories they stay 
A                           E 
And the tears they flow like alcohol 

E 
Well his daughter she loves me, 
E 
said she's always thinkin of me 
E                            B 
That's why I stand here on this boat today 
B                                                   A#/A 
I watched a rich man clear his throat, But what that rich man doesn't know 
A                     E 
is that I'll take his life away 

E 
Please forgive me god, For the things I've done 
E 
I could hide my problems, 
E     B 
I could run 
B                                     A#/A 
But it was I who held the gun, and I am the setting sun 
A                         E 
And I promise I will never, ever run

A           Dbm  Ab                     A 
I said, 'take me down where the lovers died.' 
                B 
Where those steamboats don't go, 
                                   A              E 
and that Mississippi flows all night 
E                       B       A       E 
Wastin' away where the lovers died 

E 
Wastin away on the mighty Mississippi 
E                                B 
Hoping god forgives me for my sins 
B 
Well It was I who held the gun 
B                    A#/A 
and I am the setting sun 
A                             E 
And I promise I will never, ever run
