N.C. G+G C majorC D MajorD
I am leaving Mississippi in the evening rain
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Well, these Delta towns wear satin gowns on a high-beamed frame
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Loretta Lynn guides my hands through the radio
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Where would I be, in times like these, without the songs Loretta wrote?
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G D MajorD
'Cause when you can't find a friend, you've still got the radio

And when you can't find a friend, you've still got the radio

G+G C majorC D MajorD
The radio_______
G+G C majorC D MajorD
I left a handsome, two-stepping, good ole boy in Tennessee
G+G C majorC D MajorD
Now, he's sitting on the sofa, he's looking for his supper, wondering what's become of me
G+G C majorC D MajorD
I've got a double-0-eighteen Martin guitar in the back seat of the car
G+G C majorC D MajorD
And I am leaving Mississippi with the radio on
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G D MajorD
'Cause when you can't find a friend, you've still got the radio
C majorC G+G D MajorD
And when you can't find a friend, you've still got the radio

G+G C majorC D MajorD
There's a moon across the border in the Louisiana sky
G+G C majorC D MajorD
I smell the Pontchartrain, I hear silver wings and then, away Merle Haggard flies
G+G C majorC D MajorD
That good ole boy will find a band of gold on the stereo
G+G C majorC
Hey, then my mama's gonna call and say, "Where's she gone?"
D MajorD
He'll say, "Down the road with the radio on."
CHORUS:
C majorC G+G D MajorD
When you can't find a friend, you've still got the radio
