Strum
D-DU-UDU
It  keeps raining down the tear stained face of this  lonely town
 And I drown
 And I  keep reaching for one good reason why  you said goodbye and turned
 around
 Oh your leaving  me in this empty  state
 And all  I see are dark clouds as you drive  away
Mississippi’s  crying baby
Mississippi’s  sad
I  think we just figured out that you  ain’t coming back
 The sky  can see you leaving and it cant  hold back the tears.
 Oh it's pouring  down and my heart thinks it's dying
 Mississippi’s crying
 Mississippi’s crying
 (Same as first verse/chorus)
 I keep looking for headlights shinning in this driveway but they don’t shine
 And I keep thinking this crazy storm will drive you home but not this time
 Oh my only wish is to change the weather
 Are you coming back or is it gonna rain forever?
 Mississippi’s crying baby
 Mississippi’s sad
 I think we just figured out that you ain’t coming back
 The sky can see you leaving and it cant hold back the tears.
 Oh it's pouring down and my heart thinks it's dieing
 Mississippi’s crying
 Mississippi’s crying
Where  you going baby,  what’s in Tennessee?
You  never said a word about Memphis,  so who is  she?
It  keeps raining down the tear stained face of this  lonely town
 And I  drown
 (same as other choruses)
 Mississippi's crying baby
 Mississippi's sad
 I think we just figured out that you ain’t coming back
 The sky can see you leaving and it cant hold back the tears.
 Mississippi , Mississippi,
 Mississippi’s crying
 Mississippi’s crying
 Oh Mississippi’s crying
 Mississippi’s crying (oh oh oh)
