Capo on 1st fret
One two three four
E A B
The last time I saw her she was wavin' me goodbye
A B EShe swore no other boy would take my place
A B E AI took a Mississippi Queen through New Orleans and down the Bayou
I hoped to find my destiny, my fortune and my face
E A B
Please tell her that I said hello
E A BExplain to her I didn't wanna go
But the message from her daddy said
A BHe's gonna see me dead
E B E AAnd if I can get out now, she'll never know
She'll never know, never know
A B E A
I stayed around, I played around with all those Southern belles
A A B EBut they took away my money and my pride
I had no place to go and the rest you know darn well
A A A A BLivin' out the gutter ain't so easy to describe
A B E ABut I still had my guitar, so I joined a dirty band
Workin' in a smoky downtown bar
A B E AWhen comes along this big wheel with a contract in his hand
A A A A ASaid, 'put your mark along here boy
I'm gonna make you a Rock 'n' Roll star'
E A B
Please tell her that I said hello
E A BExplain to her I didn't wanna to go
But the message from her daddy said
A BHe's gonna see me dead
E B E AAnd if I can get out now, she'll never know
Never know, never know
Well the years have come and gone
E AAnd I was passing through to find
A A B EThat my home town was still the same to see
Well, the memory I had of her had crumbled from my mind
A A A A A BI really didn't think she'd still be waiting here for me
Chorus
E A B
Please tell her that I said hello
Explain to her I didn't wanna to go
E F#But the message from her daddy said
A BHe's gonna see me dead
And if I can get out now, she'll never know
B E A BNever know, never know
repeat E A B 2 times mmmmmhhh yeah
E B E A
And if I can get out now, she'll never know
Never know, never know
E A B....never know, never know,
