Wasting away on the mighty Mississippi
E B
Hoping god forgives me for my sins
B
Well starlight stained steamboats,
B A#/A
and a rich man clears his throat
A E
Took a sip of whiskey from his glass
E
The piano plays softly and his daughter screamed, "get off me"
E B
His wife she died a few years back
B
He drinks and drinks for days
B A#/A
but the memories they stay
A E
And the tears they flow like alcohol
E
Well his daughter she loves me,
E
said she's always thinkin of me
E B
That's why I stand here on this boat today
B A#/A
I watched a rich man clear his throat, But what that rich man doesn't know
A E
is that I'll take his life away
E
Please forgive me god, For the things I've done
E
I could hide my problems,
E B
I could run
B A#/A
But it was I who held the gun, and I am the setting sun
A E
And I promise I will never, ever run

I said, "take me down where the lovers died."
B
Where those steamboats don't go,

and that Mississippi flows all night
E B Ab E
Wastin' away where the lovers died
E
Wastin away on the mighty Mississippi

Hoping god forgives me for my sins

Well It was I who held the gun

and I am the setting sun

And I promise I will never, ever run
