The Mississippi Love Song Original key: Bb [Verse]
G     C    Em      D   G  C                   Em    D
There is a girl I know.    She gets me every time

G         C       Em    D   G  C                     Em      D
With the way her hair flows and that twinkle in her eye

Em  D     C        G       Em  D              C           G
I cannot stand to see her       go out with another guy

Em  D        C               G   Em  D          C
But I can't have her all for me     and this is why
[Chorus]
G               C
Cause she's my sister, my sister

     Em            D
The daughter of my mother

       G               C
How I love her, can't stand it

   Em              D
I don't want any other

Em         D        C        G
I want to hold her close to me

Em         D        C        G
But she's too close relationally

Em     D        C           G
Why o why does she have to be

   Em  D      C
A part of my family
[Verse 2]
G     C     Em     D    G  C                   Em      D
There is a dream I have     recurring all the time

G   C     Em  D    G  C                          Em      D
The hospital calls      and says "there's been a big mistake"

Em    D            C        G
They say she was swithed at birth

Em  D                  C          G
Her last name was supposed to be Perth

Em D       C      G                     Em     D       C
Oh what a joyous day that would be
[Chorus 2]
               G                 C
Cause I could hold her, I could kiss her

        Em              D
I could tell her that I love her.

          G      C        Em        D
She'd be mine Forever and ever and ever

Em      D         C     G
I could drop down on my knees

Em          D                  C   G
And ask her to be a part of my family (Again)

Em        D      C     G
We could move to Mississippi

Em                   D         C
Where that sort of thing ain't all that uncommon
[Chorus 3]
                   G          C
But she's still my sister, my sister

     Em             D
The daughter of my mother

       G               C
How I love her, can't stand it

  Em             D
I don't want any other

Em          D       C     G
I wish that she was all I had

Em      D                  C     D
But our kids would call me uncle dad

Em         D                  C        G           Em  D  C
And their birth defects would be real bad  (yeah)

                    G          C
But she's still my sister, my sister

     Em             D
The daughter of my mother

       G              C
How I love her, can't stand it

   Em              D      G C Em D G
I don't want any other
