Verse 1
from Hannibal
D
Where the Mississippi turns
A
G
D
flat and wide
G
D
We'd lay out on the sandbars
Em
And fall asleep to the barges
A
D
and the fireflies
G
And I killed my true love from Hannibal
D
A
G
She was nineteen and I was twenty- two
G
D
and she was leaving soon
A
D
To study writing on the east coast
G
D
And I worked in my father's shop
Fixing air conditioners and
A
G
D
heating pumps
G
Going to college never made
A
I wanted to keep my true love
Verse 2
D
The summers are hot in
G
D
Hannibal
A
The summers there are unbearable
G
D
So we'd steal down to
G
D
the water's edge
A
D
And cool off in the river's ebb
G
One night we decided what
A
Swim to the middle ‘til our strength
G
D
gave out
G
Where the current was strong
D
and deep
A
Together we'd be pulled down to sleep
D
G
So we swam ‘til our bodies
D
were weak
I watched my true love
A
G
D
get washed out to sea
G
I felt a terrible grip from beneath
D
The river took her but it
Verse 3

In St. Louis there's a prison

cell

he'll shoot me down
A
If I don't do it myself
D

Most days I just try and sleep
A

I dream of Hannibal when it was in between

It's not quite day and it's

not yet night

We fall asleep to the barges and the fireflies
