Em                     D                    C 
  Hey girl, I'm just a small town run around 
                   G                       Em 
I get my kicks out on the outskirts of town 
                    D                     C 
I could never do it like a pretty city boy 
                          G                    Em 
I'm more a fishin' in the dark nitty gritty boy 
                       D                  C 
So lay back and let me paint you a picture 
                C* 
The way I wanna kiss you is 
 
 
 
 
C            G          Em 
 Slow as the Mississippi 
            D               C 
Strong as a fifth of whiskey 
                G          Em 
Steady as a Tom Petty track 
                    D 
I wanna love, wanna love you like that 
C              G         Em 
 Deeper than a sunset sky 
             D         C 
Sweeter than muscadine wine 
                   G             Em 
All night 'til the sun comes back  
                    D           D*            G   D C G 
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that

Em                    D                         C 
  When I'm with you I can see down the road girl 
                              G                Em 
Not just the gravel one we're travelin' on girl 
                          D                   C 
And I'm bettin' that it's gonna be a wild ride 
                       G                          Em 
But I promise that I'm gonna be there by your side 
                       D                   C 
I think we got another memory in the makin' 
 
So baby let's take it, take it 
 
 
 
 
C            G          Em 
 Slow as the Mississippi 
            D               C 
Strong as a fifth of whiskey 
                G          Em 
Steady as a Tom Petty track 
                    D 
I wanna love, wanna love you like that 
C              G         Em 
 Deeper than a sunset sky 
             D         C 
Sweeter than muscadine wine 
                   G             Em 
All night ?til the sun comes back   
                    D           D*               C G Em D

Em                    D                     C 
  I ain't gonna do it like a pretty city boy 
                     G                    C* 
I'm a fishin' in the dark nitty gritty boy, yeah 
                  C 
So let me love you 
 
 
 
 
            G          Em 
Slow as the Mississippi 
            D               C 
Strong as a fifth of whiskey 
                G               Em 
Steady as a Tom Petty track girl 
                    D 
I wanna love, wanna love you like that 
C              G         Em 
 Deeper than a sunset sky 
             D         C 
Sweeter than muscadine wine 
                   G             Em 
All night ?til the sun comes back  
                    D           D*            G    D  
I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that 
     C                    G                         G   D  C  G 
Baby, I wanna love, wanna love, wanna love you like that 
    G  D                                         C                      
Yea-ah, (I can never do it like a pretty city boy) 
                             G                     G D C G*
