[Verse 1]
DIf it wasn’t so dark out here tonight
EmI know I’d be a hell of a sight
G A DCovered in Arkansas clay from head to toe
DIf I told you once, I told you twice
EmYou better not touch my Clementine
G ABut you didn’t listen, now you’re fillin’ up this hole
[Chorus]
D EmHey buddy, hey buddy, ain’t that Mississippi muddy
G A DIn this town, well, yeah, she takes what you give her
DSo tonight I lay me down to sleep
EmAnd pray my soul and my secret to keep
G A DBetween you, me and the river
D….
[Verse 2]
DIt’s been a long week working overtime
EmThat’s why I got home early tonight
G AAnd when I saw your car, I could smell the trouble
DSo I turned off my h?adlights
EmAnd saw your silhouettes through candlelight
G A DAnd I w?nt to the shed to get my shovel
[Chorus]
D EmHey buddy, hey buddy, ain’t that Mississippi muddy
G A DIn this town, well, yeah, she takes what you give her
DSo tonight I lay me down to sleep
EmAnd pray my soul and my secret to keep
G A DBetween you, me and the river
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
DThey’re gonna come knockin’, it’s a matter of time
EmThe last goodbye, my alibi
G A DAnd where Clementine ran off to, they’ll wonder
DI won’t tell ’em she’s cheatin’ on me
EmBut I’ll smile at the memory
G DOf my diamond on her hand as she went under
[Chorus]
D EmHey buddy, hey buddy, ain’t that Mississippi muddy
G A DIn this town, well, yeah, she takes what you give her
DSo tonight I lay me down to sleep
EmAnd pray my soul and my secret to keep
G A DBetween you, me and the river
G A DBetween you, me and the river
