Intro:
G    C
F  F#  G  /  F  F#  G  /  F  F#  G

    C              D
You tell me you're lonely
  Bm            Em
I know how you feel
        C         D
Leaning up at the bones
        Bm         Em
Rocking back on my heals
        C              D
She's a wild bird that wandered
    G         Em
Too easy, too stray
  C               D
I knew she had to lose me
   Bm           Cmaj7
To find her own way

(chorus)
Em         C              G
Oh, curry*, I'll be coming soon
            G     G7  C            F    F#     G
--> Through the Lou'siana pines to the Mississippi moon  (x2)<--

  C           D
A wave on the ocean
 Bm              Em
A whirlwind on the sea
  C        D
I took a notion
   Bm                Em
That her ship would not land(?)
   C            D
So light me a candle
   G            Em
In the forest so deep
   C              D
Honey, lay down beside me
  Bm              Cmaj7
Angels rock us to sleep

(chorus)
Em         C              G
Oh, curry*, I'll be coming soon
            G     G7  C            F    F#     G
--> Through the Lou'siana pines to the Mississippi moon (x2) <-- 

F    F#     G       F    F#     G

* prepare, make one presentable, spruce up
