Sugarland - Down in Mississippi guitar tab

Down In Mississippi (and Up To No Good) by Sugarland

Intro - Start strumming in (D)

(D) Friday, payday, lordy got to get away

Had it with the wife thing, living on a shoe string

(G) What's a poor girl got to do just to have some (D) fun

Well all these years without any help

Guess what honey clothes just don't wash themselves

(G) Neither do dishes, neither does the bathroom (D) floor

So now if (A) anyone asks, not that they would

I'll be (G) down in Mississippi and (A) up to no (D) good

(D) No more, what a bore, had enough, I'm out the door

Headed for a breakdown, had it with the small town

(G) Gonna call Lisa, gonna call Carla (D) Sue

Well now, we're gonna let it roll, gonna let it rip

Gonna get us a nice room down on the strip

(G) Not that we'll need it, there won't be any sleepin' to-(D)-ni-iii-ight

So now, if (A) anyone asks, not that they would

We'll be (G) down in Mississippi and (A) up to no (D) good

Chorus

We-ee-ll (G) hammer down, here we go

Runnin' for the riverboat

(D) All you're gonna see is asses and elbows

(G) Luck's about to change, for these three queens

(A) Tired of getting' jokers, deal us up ki-nn-nn-ngs

Instrumental Break - Follow pattern of verse that starts 'Snake Eyes'*

(D) (G) (D) (A) (G) (A) (D)

Repeat Chorus

* (D) Snake eyes, roll the dice, double down and hit me twice

Cashin' the big chips, gonna leave a big tip

(G) Hotter than a two dollar pistol baby I'm on (D) fi-ii-ire

So now if (A) anyone asks, and not that they would

I'll be (G) down in Mississippi and (A) up to no (D) good

Well now if (A) anyone asks, and not that they would

I'll be (G) down in Mississippi and (A) up to no (D) good

Yeahahhhhhhh (D) /
