verse 1
 
G       A                D 
January came and took my heart away 
D   Em D A  G 
Feb-ru-a-ry felt the same 
F#m       Em               D 
March, my hugs became hold ons 
D        A                    G 
April, I huffed like porridge on the boil 
G            A                 D 
Morning May, I'm downwind from your shampoo 
D Em   D   A    G                      Em 
Ichi, ni, san, go, roku, nana, hachi, kyuu, jyuu 
D                  A               G 
June, I learned to count to ten in Japanese 
G              A           D 
Dry July, like wiping skin from my skull 
  D     Em  D   A  G 
Instead, I visited family 
F#m          Em 
They told me I'm special 
A   G 
Hmm 

verse 2 
  G               A                     D 
Augustus came and stabilised me with my father's pain 
  D  Em   D     A G 
Relieving drug, diazepam 
F#m  E       D 
Life floats away 
D               A           G 
October, I swam back for my birthday 
    G                 A               D 
Firework display in a cafeteria of my old school 
D   Em D  A  G                 F#m   Em 
Happ-i-er my cold, black sleep in my cold, deep bed 
  D           A          G 
December, you sang at my funeral 

B-section 
        D/A            Bm           D              A 
If it's depths to your rivers, I've picked one for you 
    D/A         Bm     D           A 
Oh, greedy with Ss but equalled by Is 
        D/A             Bm            D            A 
If it's stones for your pockets, I've collected a few 
   D/A      Bm 
To hold you down 
   D        A 
To hold you down 

G     A      D            G 
Mississippi, come back to me 
G         A           D           G 
Oh, Mississippi, your cold, black sleep 
G   A     D  G 
Oh, Mississippi 
D   A   D 
Oh, oh, oh

Mississippi, come back to me 
G             A               D           G 
Come, Mississippi, from your cold, black sleep 
G   A     D  G 
Oh, Mississippi 
D    A   D 
Hmm 
D    A   D 
Hmm
