[Verse 1]
Well the Gnight was Dlong, and the Cliquor was Gstrong
I was Cfeelin' alGright next to Dyou
GSpendin' my Dnights, Cback in LouisiGana
With a Clove that I Dthought I Gknew
[Verse 2]
We'd Gwalk to the Dtop, of the Chickory hilGls
CLovin' in the Gpourin' rDain
  GIllumiDnated by the Clight of the Gmoon
And in that Cmoment I forDgot my Gname
[Chorus]
Oh we were Csingin' to the Griver, Cwatchin' the willows Gsway
Oh with the Cstarlight fallin' Gon us
MagDnolia why'd you rCun awaGy
[Verse 3]
GWhere have you Dgone, I've Csearched for too Glong
CLooked up your Gname time to Dtime
But Gall that I Dfind is that I'm Cloosin' my Gmind
From the Cmemory of Dyou that I claGim
[Verse 4]
But Goh what a Dsight, in a Clace dress so Gwhite
CSwept up the Gmoss from the Dfloor
GSometimes I still Dsee your silhouCette out in the Gnight
But by Cmornin' she aint Dthere anyGmore
[Chorus]
Oh we were Csingin' to the Griver, Cwatchin' the willows Gsway
Oh with the Cstarlight fallin' Gon us
MagDnolia why'd you rCun awaGy
Oh we were Cdancin' in the Gmoonlight,  Ctil the mornin' Gcame
Oh I been Ctryin' to find my way back to Gyou dear
MagDnolia why'd you rCun awaGy
[Verse 5]
Well the Gnight is Dlong, and the Cliquor is Gstrong
And toCnight I'Gm feelin' Dblue
My Gmemory Dtakes me Cback to LouisiGana
To the Clove that I Dthought I Gknew
[Chorus]
Oh we were Csingin' to the Griver, Cwatchin' the willows Gsway
Oh with the Cstarlight fallin' Gon us
MagDnolia why'd you rCun awaGy
Oh we were Cdancin' in the Gmoonlight,  Ctil the mornin' Gcame
Oh I been Ctryin' to find my way back to Gyou dear
MagDnolia why'd you rCun awaGy
Oh I been Ctryin' to find my way back to Gyou dear
MagDnolia why'd you rCun awaGy

[Verse 1]

G D C G

Well the night was long, and the liquor was strong

C G D

I was feelin' alright next to you

G D C G

Spendin' my nights, back in Louisiana

C D G

With a love that I thought I knew

[Verse 2]

G D C G

We'd walk to the top, of the hickory hills

C G D

Lovin' in the pourin' rain

G D C G

Illuminated by the light of the moon

C D G

And in that moment I forgot my name

[Chorus]

C G C G

Oh we were singin' to the river, watchin' the willows sway

C G

Oh with the starlight fallin' on us

D C G

Magnolia why'd you run away

[Verse 3]

G D C G

Where have you gone, I've searched for too long

C G D

Looked up your name time to time

G D C G

But all that I find is that I'm loosin' my mind

C D G

From the memory of you that I claim

[Verse 4]

G D C G

But oh what a sight, in a lace dress so white

C G D

Swept up the moss from the floor

G D C G

Sometimes I still see your silhouette out in the night

C D G

But by mornin' she aint there anymore

[Chorus]

C G C G

Oh we were singin' to the river, watchin' the willows sway

C G

Oh with the starlight fallin' on us

D C G

Magnolia why'd you run away

C G C G

Oh we were dancin' in the moonlight, til the mornin' came

C G

Oh I been tryin' to find my way back to you dear

D C G

Magnolia why'd you run away

[Verse 5]

Well the night is long, and the liquor is strong

And tonight I'm feelin' blue

G D C G

My memory takes me back to Louisiana

C D G

To the love that I thought I knew

[Chorus]

C G C G

Oh we were singin' to the river, watchin' the willows sway

C G

Oh with the starlight fallin' on us

Oh we were dancin' in the moonlight, til the mornin' came

Oh I been tryin' to find my way back to you dear
