(Waltz) {Intro} | G | G7 | C | C | | G | D7 | G | G | [Verse 1]
G           E7           Am         G7
I'm growing tired of the big cities lights

             D7          G
Tired of the glamour and tired of the sights

C         G       E7/G              Am
In all my dreams, I am roaming once more

A7                      D7
Back to my home, on the old river shore
[Verse 2]
G7                  C             Am
I am sad and weary, far away from home

G             D         G    D7
Missing Mississippi and you, dear

G                 G7      C            Am
Days are dark and dreary, everywhere I roam

G             D7        G    G7
Missing Mississippi and you
[Chorus 1]
C                      G
Rolling the wide world over

Em      A7       D7
Always alone and blue, blue

G                G7        C              Am
Nothing seems to cheer me, under heaven's dôme

G             D7        G    
Missing Mississippi and you

[Verse 3]
G            G7        C             Am
Memories are bringing, happy days of yore

G             D         G    D7
Missing Mississippi and you

G                G7       C               Am
Mockingbirds are singing, round the cabin door

G             D         G    G7
Missing Mississippi and you
[Chorus 2]
C                      G7
Rolling the wide world over

Em      A7            D7     D
Always alone and blue-ue, so blue

G              G7        C           Am
Longing for my homeland, muddy water shore

G             D7        G    G7
Missing Mississippi and you
