A E
Snowed this mornin'
B C#m
That kind of cold
B
Where your car won't start
A
And your heart won't go
A E A B C#m
The headwaters up here will freeze your bones
A C#m B A
But they say I can float this river home
B
It's that long
Chorus:
A E B C#m
The Mississippi river runs so wide
A E B C#m
The biggest tear God ever cried
A E B C#m
Right now it feels like the great divide
A E B C#m
And Lord I want to be on the other side
A E B E
And Lord I want to be on the other side
A E B C#m
Where that icy water turns to mud
B A
And tastes dirty like it always should
A E
Where they talk lazy
A B C#m
And they walk slow
A C#M B A
And there's gospel in the radio
B
That's where I want to go
Chorus
A E B C#m
50 miles til I get home
B A
But when you're this close miles go twice as long
A E
When I cross over
A B C#m
I'm going to get down
A C#M B A
Gonna close my eyes and kiss the ground
