[Intro] A A A A A A A A D D A A G G F#m F#m E E A D G G x4 [Verse]
       A         D      A
As the moon goes fading

   A     D    A
He lies awake waiting

      D            A
For a break in the night

        G                D
When he makes his lonely flight
[Verse]
             A        D   A
And it's the same old story

    A    D         A
Somebody bound for glory

        D           G
And somewhere in my life

  D                 A     D G
I swear it had to belong
A D G [Verse]
     A            D     A
Been countin' the stars

        D       G           A
As they come on through the bars

              D     G
And I've been heard singing

  D         A
A sad man's song
[Chorus]
              A       D           A
It's time for busting out of this jail

         D    G           A
Get me a gun, no time for bail

              D
And I've been here

G        D          A    D G
Too many nights too long
A D E [Bridge]
          A                 F#m       A
And now I wonder if they'll find me tonight

          A               F#m
I've been sleepin' in the day

A                 D        G    E
Runnin' below the pale moonlight
[Verse]
            A        D  A
Hidin' in a canebrake

       A           D             G  A
From a man I can't seem to shake

          D
And in my head

    G         D        A
I'm hearing a southern song
[Chorus]
     A           D        A
Mississippi roll on in my brain

        D
Keep me sheltered

       G      A
In the summer rain

                   D
I could never stay here

G        D          A    D G
Too many nights too long
A D G A D G A D E [Bridge]
          A                 F#m       A
And now I wonder if they'll find me tonight

          A               F#m
I've been sleepin' in the day

A                 D        G   E
Runnin' below the pale moonlight
[Verse]
     A       D        A
Escondido en un cañaveral

      D          G        A
De un hombre que no puedo ver

     D            G
Y el hombre, escondido

D          A
De dónde será
[Chorus]
     A           D        A
Mississippi roll on in my brain

        D
Keep me sheltered

       G      A
In the summer rain

        A          D
I could never stay here

G        D          A
Too many nights too long

        A          D
I could never stay here

G        D          A    D G
Too many nights too long
[Outro] A D G (repeat)
