Listen to the Radio

(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
