lyrics

The Missouri Waltz (Capo on 4th fret, in B)

G D G C
From the flood plains up by Nebraska a great river draws our state line.
Then bends east across to St. Louis. I set my watch by Kansas City time.
G D G – C – G
I set my watch, by Kansas City time.

The Mississippi draws down to the Boot Heel, river towns dotting the way.
Paddle wheel steamboats and log rafts, fill our dreams even today. (2x)

Refrain
C G Em C
I’ll think of your beautiful laughter as I walk each rolling-hill mile.
G D G – C – G
And I’ll see you again, where the Missouri bends with a smile.

Once forest from border to border there are trees between all the fields.
A long growing season for cropland, and a blessing of rain for good yields. (2x)
refrain

But the cedar, white oak and sycamore are still home to the fox and the deer.
the owl and hawk and all of their prey. Beavers build their dams here. (2x)
refrain

The great finger lakes in the Ozarks form a parkland 200 miles wide.
The caves in those bluffs are enormous. Spelunkers come from far and wide. (2x)
Refrain
