A simple song from a simple man.

,

I've never actually posted a song on this thing, so I thought I would share one with you. (Sundays are usually my song writing days) There's definitely a feeling of lonliness in the air down here. This song's about that, but it's also full of hope. For all of the pickers out there, I threw down some chords for ya!

C (walk down to Am)
Her loves' like the Mississippi
Am G
Wild, Fierce and Deep
F C
Winding through the land
F G
Washin' away everyone she meets
(repeat chord progression forever)


We had ourselves a time or two A little me and a little you mixed up then enjoyed the view but now yo gone, (but I know she's)

(chorus) She's catching the first plane back to New Orleans The city care forgot Never forgot her name She misses the levee breeze and twinkling beads in the trees My Mississippi Queen is finally coming home to me

River boats a churnin' We gettin' back on our feet Street cars' makin' stops all along Canal Street

There's one thing that's missin' and it's all that I need It's all up to you my love so hopefully

(chorus) She's catching the first plane back to New Orleans The city care forgot Never forgot her name She misses the levee breeze and twinkling beads in the trees My Mississippi Queen is finally coming home to me

All the beauties on the bayou throughout history bow to you my love And to your precious memory

I'll keep on sippin' on my wine Perched on my balcony A toast to you my dear and to our destiny

She's catching the first plane back to New Orleans The city care forgot Never forgot her name She misses the levee breeze and twinkling beads in the trees My Mississippi Queen is finally coming home to me

Peace. Dillon
