My Mississippi chords by Jeff Bates


Jeff Bates Chords

Capo: 1st Fret

Intro: C  Am  G  F (2x)

   C 	  	  	 Am
I traded a ’57 Chevy for my first guitar
   G 	  	  	  	 F
Daddy said I was crazy, cuz that was a hell of a car
   C 	  	  	  	 Am
When I played Love Me Tender, on that Fender
   G 	  	  	  	  	 F
And the music came pouring out of my hands and heart


   Am 	  	  	       Em
He knew it was worth it, and so did I
   F 	  	  	     G
Cuz sometimes some things don’t have a price


  C 	  	  	       Am
So I learned to play all my heroes songs
  G 	  	  	  	  	 F
And I finally got around to writing a few of my own
  C 	  	  	 Am
The songs got better, I put a band together
  G 	  	  	      F
And we played our first gig at a little club in McComb


  Am 	  	  	  	 Em
When I walked on stage and opened my mouth
  F 	  	  	    G
I started to sing and you came pouring out


Chorus:
  C 	   G/B 	    Am
Ooooh, Ooooooh Mississippi, 
   F 	  	  	       G
You know how hard it was for me to leave
  C       G/B 	    Am
Ooooh, Ooooooh Mississippi, 
  F 	  	      G
I miss you, I hope you miss me
  NC (2nd Chorus play C)
My Mississippi 


C  Am  G  F


  C 	  	  	  	    Am
So I packed my Delta dreams, and came to music city
  G 	  	  	  	          F
I brought a whole lot of me, a little Presley and some Twitty
  C 	  	  	  	    Am
I came here to make it, but if I don’t I can take it
  G 	  	  	      F
Just as long as I have you with me


  Am 	    	       Em
I know I’m gonna be strong enough
  F 	  	  	  G
Cuz I’ve got your mud, in my blood


CHORUS

  Bb 	  	  	 F 	 
You know I have four first loves,
 C            G/B 	     Am 	  	  	      G
That car, this guitar, and the girl that broke my heart, and


C 	 G/B 	    Am
You, Ooooooooh Mississippi
  F 	  	  	        G
You know how hard it was for me to leave
C 	 G/B 	    Am
Ooooh, Ooooooh Mississippi, 
  F 	  	      G
I miss you, I hope you miss me

C  Am  G  F (fade out, ad lib)
