THIS MATCHES THE RECORDING
Chorus
E
I sang Dixie as he died the people just walked on bye as I cried
A E
The bottle had robbed him of all his rebel pride
B7 E
So I sang Dixie as he died
Verse 1
E
He said way down yonder in the land of cotton
A E
Ole times there aint near as rotten as they are
E B7
On theses damned ole L.A streets
E
Then he drew a dying breath
A
Laid his head against my chest
E B7
Oh please lord take his soul back
E
Home to Dixie
(Chorus)
E
He said listen to me son while you still can
A
Run back home to that southern land
E B7
Don�t you see what life here has done to me
E
Then he closed those old blue eyes
A E
Fell limp against my side no more pain
B7 E
Now he�s safe back home in Dixie
(chorus)
