Whiskey Myers – Mud chords

D  G  D  G  D

DOh  Lord  won't you let me stay in the place where I was born?
DIn the fields Granddaddy tilled and all my seeds are sown
G                                     EAin't no love for a poor dirt farmer  genuine son of the south
G                D                                 DAnd the water's high and the bills are too and the levy tumbling down

E               GDaddy owed the banker man
E                              GSo  we was drowning before the flood
E                        GThat river washed us all away
E                         GLeft us right here in the mud

D  G  D  G Yeah  in the mud

D                            G           D          DWe built this house upon the Mississippi back in 1879
D                       G                  D               GOver a hundred years my family's been here barely scraping by
DWe just some good old country folks just trying to weather the G
storm
DHow we gonna pay when the interest rates done got higher than the
corn?

E                  GAin't no man gonna take it away
E                           G'Cause it's deep down in my blood
E                    GStep across that old property line

           EAnd you'll die
                  GRight here in the mud

         D              EA couple city guys with suits and ties
         GBet they can't feel this crosshair right between their eyes

      D                  EI got no place to go and no place to run
