Mississippi Mud

(início)

INTRO:
Am    C    G    Am
VERSE:
          Am
Left his home in Louisiana
            C
Headed for Nashville, Tennessee
          G
Where he plays in the bars and prays to the stars
    Am
To find his melody
          Am
He spends all thoise nights under the neon lights
 C
Trying to chase a dream
          G
Where he tries to be heard singing someone else's words
             Am
But there's more to him than what it seems
          Am
See he's always been pretty good with a pen
        C
And he wears his heart on his sleeve
            G
So put him under the lights with a pic and a mike
     Am
And he'll make you believe
CHORUS:
       Am
'Cause he ain't no cowboy
       C
No he don't try to play the part
             G
He's just a southern boy who likes making noise
        Am
And he sings straight from his heart
        Am
He was raised on the mud from the Mississippi floods
            C
Yeah, he's usualy a simple man
            G
But you'll know his name, he'll make you feel his pain
       Am                    C Am
With a six string in his hand
VERSE:
        Am
He was always told he was chasing fools gold
               C
'You'll never make it anyway
           G
And even though he tried, the passion inside
      Am
Just wouldn't go away
      Am
So I guess you can blame that rhythm in his veins
        C
It was too hard to ignore
           G
And he's known all along right where he belongs
        Em
And he can't fight it anymore
CHORUS:
       Am
'Cause he ain't no cowboy
       C
No he don't try to play the part
             G
He's just a southern boy who likes making noise
        Am
And he sings straight from his heart
        Am
He was raised on the mud from the Mississippi floods
            C
Yeah, he's usualy a simple man
            G
But you'll know his name, he'll make you feel his pain
       Am
With a six string in his hand
POST-CHORUS:
       Am
No he ain't here to claim the money or the fame
            C
Yeah, he's got a much bigger goal
             G
To take his love and his hurt and pour it into verse
          Em                Em  Am    C    G    Em
That you feel deep in your soooooul                Noooooooo
CHORUS:
Am
He ain't no cowboy
        C
But he won't apologize
         G
For his jeans or his boots or his deep southern roots
        Am
Or the fire in his eyes
          Am
Got that Mississippi mud, running through his blood
          C
And he's never been ashamed
        G
And he ain't backing down
    G
Or leaving this town
      Em
Till they all know his name
