Dixie Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am][E][Am]

[Verse 1]
If I [Am]ever get out of Dixie
Gonna buy me some brand new shoes
Gonna [E]have somebody shine
'em up soon as I pay my [Am]dues
If I ever get out of Tennessee
Out from 'neath this dust and dirt
Gonna [E]live just like a high and mighty
Gonna get what I deserve
[Am]

[Verse 2]
[C]When I cross that line,
man I'll sing a brand new song
Instead [E]of sitting here by the railroad
tracks whistlin' Dixie all day [Am]long
[C]I'm so tired of paying,
praying for my sins
Lord [E]get me outta Dixie Land
in Jesus' name, amen
[Am]

[Verse 3]
It was the mines that killed my daddy
It was the law that killed my man
It was the [E]Bible belt that whipped me
When I broke the Fifth Command
[Am]I don't hate the weather
I don't hate the land
[E]But if I had my way I'd never
see this place again
[Am]

[Verse 4]
[C]When I cross that line,
man I'll sing a brand new song
Instead [E]of sitting here by the railroad
tracks whistlin' Dixie all day [Am]long
[C]I'm so tired of paying,
praying for my [Am]sins
Lord [E]get me outta Dixie Land in Jesus' name,
[Am]amen[E]
[Am][E]
[Am]
[C]When I cross that line,
man I'll sing a brand new song
Instead [E]of sitting here by the railroad
tracks whistlin' Dixie all day [Am]long
[C]I'm so tired of paying,
praying for my [Am]sins[C]
Lord [E]get me outta Dixie Land in Jesus' name,
amen
[Am]

[Verse 5]
When I tread out of these parts
Look me up on the other side
Cause [E]I'll be damned if I go
down in Dixie when I [Am]die
Yeah, [E]I'll be damned if I go
down in Dixie when I die
[Am]
