(verse 1)
Bb Eb F
I am leaving Mississippi in the evening rain
Bb Eb F
These Delta towns wear satin gown in a high speed
frame
Bb Eb F
Loretta Lynn guides my hand through the radio
Bb Eb F
Where would I be in times like these without the songs
Loretta wrote
(chorus)
Eb Bb F
And if you can't find a friend you still got the radio
Eb Bb F
And if you can't find a friend you still got the radio
Bb Eb F
The radio, oh, listen to the radio
Bb Eb F
The radio, oh, listen to the radio
Bb Eb F
The radio, oh, oh
(verse 2 - same chords as verse 1)
I left a handsome two-step good ole' boy in Tennessee
Now he's sittin' on the sofa, he's looking for his
supper
Wonderin' what's become of me
I got a double-o-eighteen Martin guitar in the back
seat of the car
Hey I am leaving Mississippi with the radio on
(chorus)
(instrumental)
(verse 3 - same chords as verse 1)
There's a moon accross the border of the Louisiana sky
I smell the pontcha train, I hear the silver wings
And then away Merle Haggard flies
That boy of mine will find a band of gold on the
stereo
Hey then my mama's gonna call and say where's she gone
He'll say down the road with the radio on
(chorus)
(tag)
Bb Eb F
The radio, oh, listen to the radio
Bb Eb F
The radio, oh, listen to the radio
Bb Eb F
The radio, oh then, down the road you'll go
