[Verse]
C G F G*
Asking for forgiveness oh forgive me for my faults
C G F G*
And I hope you never get this but I sent it to your door
C G F G*
And I’ve crossed that Mississippi at least three times before
C G F G*
Oh no without your love I can’t go back there no more
C G F G*
Said oh no without your love I can’t go back there no more.
C G F G*
Locked up all your windows and bolted all your doors
C G F G*
And I’ve had some trouble listening my ears are glued to the floor
C G F G*
And oh no you wont see me again, least a year or more
C G F G*
Said my bags are all packed and my shoes are by the back door
C G F G*
Yes my bags are all packed and my shoes are by the back door.

I’ll let you get real close and then, give you the slip

I’m just a little twig floatin down the big ole riv
