Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
I [D]wish [A]I w[D]as in the land of cotton
[G]Old times there are not forgotten
Look [D]away, [Bm]look away, look [A]away, [D]Dixieland
In Dixieland, where I was born
[G]Early on one frosty morn
Look [D]away, look [G]away, look [A]away, Dixieland
[D]Oh, I wish I was in [G]Dixie
[E]Hooray, hooray, [A]hooray
In [D]Dixieland
I'll [G]take my stand
To live [D]and die in Dixie
[A]Awa[D]y, awa[A]y, awa[D]y
Way down south in [A]Dixie[D][A][D]
With one kiss she married Will the Weaver
But [G]William was a sly deceiver
[D]Look away, look [Bm]away, look [A]away, Dixieland
[D]And when he put his arm around her
He smiled [G]as fierce as a forty
-pounder
[D]Look away, [Bm]look away, look [A]away, Dixieland
[D]I wish I was in Dix[G]ie, hooray,
[E]hooray[A]
[D]In Dixieland
[G]I'll take my stand
To [D]live and die in [A]Dixie
[D]Away, [A]away
Away [D]down South in [A]Dixie
[D][A][D][A][D]
His face was sharp as a butcher's cleaver
But [G]that did not seem to grieve her
Look [D]away, look away,
[Bm]look [A]away, [D]Dixieland
With one kiss she acted the foolish part
And [G]died for a man [D]that [G]broke [A]her [G]heart
[D]Look away, look away,
[A]look away, [D]Dixieland
Oh, I wish I was in [G]Dixie, [E]hooray, [A]hooray
In [D]Dixieland
I'll take [G]my stand
[D]to live and die in [A]Dixie
[D]Away, [A]away, away [D]down south [A]in Dixie
[D]Away, away, awa[E]y, awa[A]y,
[D]awa[G]y, away, away,
Away down south [A]in Dixie[D]
