Mississippi Half Step Uptown Toodeloo Uke tab by Grateful Dead (Baritone Chords)

C               E7
On the day when I was born
F               Am
Daddy sat down and cried.
F                      C        G
I had the mark just as plain as day;
D7                    G
Which could not be denied.
C                E7
They say that Cain caught Abel
F              Am
Rollin' loaded dice;
F              C       G
Ace of Spades behind his ear
    F                 E7
And him not thinkin' twice.

Am                                     G
Halfstep, Mississippi uptown toodeloo
F                   C         G
Hello, baby, I'm gone, goodbye
F                   C        G
Half a cup of Rock and Rye.
F                   C        G
Farewell to you old Southern skies
Am        E7
I'm on my way, on my way.

If all you got to live for
Is what you left behind,
Get yourself a powder charge
And seal that silver mine.
Lost my boots in transit, babe,
A pile of smokin' leather.
I nailed a retread to my feet
And prayed for better weather.

They say that when your ship comes in,
The first man takes the sails;
The second takes the afterdeck,
The third the planks and rails
What's the point of callin' shots;
This cue ain't straight in line.
Cue ball's made of styrofoam
And no one's got the time.

A              D                A           D
Across the Rio Grandeeo, Across the lazy river.
