Charley Pride - Roll On Mississippi guitar chord

Roll On Mississippi

By Charley Pride

Capo 3

D D/C# Bm G D

Walking along, whistling a song, barefoot and fancy free

D D/C# Bm G D

A big riverboat, passing us by, she’s headed for New Orleans

A D

There she goes, disappearing around the bend.

D A D

Roll on Mississippi; you make me feel like a child again.

A cool river breeze, like peppermint leaves, the taste of it takes me back

Chew’n on a straw, torn overalls, a cane pole and old straw hat and muddy river

Just like a long lost friend

Roll on Mississippi, you make me feel like a child again

Chorus:

D G D G D

Roll on Mississippi, big river roll

Bm A G A

You’re the childhood dream that I grew up on

G A Bm

Roll on Mississippi, carry me home

G A

Now I can see I’ve been away too long

D G D

Roll on, Mississippi, roll on

Now, when the world's spinning round, too fast for me And I need a place to dream

So I come to your banks, I sit in your shade and relive the memories

Tom Sawyer and Huckleberry Finn

Roll on Mississippi; you make me feel like a child again

Chorus

Roll on, Mississippi, Roll on

Roll on, Mississippi, Roll on

Roll on, Mississippi, Roll on
