(Verse 1)
If it (D)wasn't so dark out here tonight
I (Em)know I'd be a hell of a sight
(G)Covered in Arkansas (A)clay from head to toe (D)
If I (D)told you once, I told you twice
You (Em)better not touch my Clementine
But (G)you didn't listen, now you're (A)fillin' up this (D)hole
(Chorus)
Hey (D)buddy, hey buddy, ain't that (Em)Mississippi muddy
In this (G)town, well, yeah, (A)she takes what you (D)give her
So to-(D)night I lay me down to sleep and (Em)pray my soul and my secret to keep
Between (G)you, (A)me and the (D)river |(D) / / / |(D) / / / |(D) / / /
(Verse 2)
It's (D)been a long week working overtime
That's (Em)why I got home early tonight
And when I (G)saw your car (A)I could smell the (D)trouble
So (D)I turned off my hеadlights
And saw your (Em)silhouettes through candlelight
And (G)I wеnt to the (A)shed to get my (D)shovel
(Chorus)
Hey, (D)buddy, hey buddy, ain't that (Em)Mississippi muddy
In this (G)town, well, yeah, (A)she takes what you (D)give her
So to-(D)night I lay me down to sleep and (Em)pray my soul and my secret to keep
Between (G)you, (A)me and the(D) river

(Verse 3)
They're (D)gonna come knockin', it's a matter of time
The (Em)last goodbye, my alibi
And where (G)Clementine ran (A)off to, they'll (D)wonder
I won't (D)tell 'em she's cheatin' on me
But (Em)I'll smile at the memory
Of my (G)diamond on her (A)hand as she went (D)under - - -
(Chorus)
Hey (D)buddy, hey buddy, ain't that (Em)Mississippi muddy
In this (G)town, well, yeah, (A)she takes what you (D)give her
So to-(D)night I lay me down to sleep and (Em)pray my soul and my secret to keep
Between (G)you, (A)me and the (D)river
Between (G)you, (A)me and the (D)river
