            G               Em            C               G 
Well, she's born outside of Memphis, just north of Tupelo, 
   G             Em          D     D 
oh Lord, she's a Mississippi Queen. 
    G                  Em        C                     G 
And just like that big river, oh Lord, she'll pull you under, 
           G           D   G    G 
she fights   fire with gasoline.

    G                 Em      C                 G 
The first time that I saw her down at the white water, 
G                  Em               D      D 
dance across those ancient hardwood floors. 
              G              Em               C              G 
And you could tell she had a history with the cigarettes and whiskey 
        G               D        G     G 
and the boys that had a way with words. 


      C   D G    G      C   D  G       G 
But I want to make   that glorious mistake, 
G             Em          C        G 
she's got the kisses of a thousand angels 
        G         D     G      G 
and the bite of a rattlesnake.

     G               Em            C                 G 
Much like my first occurrence with straight Kentucky bourbon, 
    G         Em              D     D 
oh, Lord, she took my breath away. 
    G                   Em         C            G 
And when she called me "Darlin'" I started caterwaulin', 
    G     D               G    G 
oh, I had nothin' else to say. 


      C   D G    G      C   D  G       G 
But I want to make   that glorious mistake, 
G             Em          C        G 
she's got the kisses of a thousand angels 
        G         D     G     G 
and the bite of a rattlesnake.

| G          | D          | G          | G          | 


    G                Em            C                   G 
And when she gets me all alone she strikes the fear of Jesus, 
    G               Em                  D     D 
she sends that fear coursin' through my blood. 
    G               Em            C               G 
And when we hit the bedroom, it's always fire and brimstone, 
     G           D             G     G 
yes, I have been washed in the flood.
