      [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]
         G        D             C         G
Well the night is long, and the liquor is strong
      C       G         D 
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
   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
          C                             G
Oh I been tryin' to find my way back to you dear
   D                C     G
Magnolia why'd you run away
