[Intro 1]
[C][C][Em][Em]
[F][G][C][G]

[Verse 1]
I was sittin' there [C]
sellin' turnips on a flatbed truck
[Em]Crunchin' on a pork rind when she pulled up
She [F]had to be thinkin' this is
[G]where rednecks come [Am]from
[F]She had[G] Ho [C]llywood
written on her license plate
She was [Em]lost and lookin' for the interstate
[F]Needin' directions,
[G]and I was the man for the job[C]

[Chorus 1]
I told her [F]way up yonder
past the [G]caution light
There's a lit[F]tle country store
with an [G]old Coke sign
You gotta [F]stop in and ask Miss Bell
[G]for some of her sweet tea[Am]
Then a [F]left will take you to the [Dm]interstate
But a [F]right will bring you
[G]right back here to [C]me[G]

[Verse 2]
I was sittin' [C]there
thinkin' 'bout her pretty face
[Em]Kickin' myself for not catchin' her name
[F]I threw my hat and thought, 'you f[G]ool,
that it coulda been [Am]love
[F]I k[G]new[C] my old Ford
couldn't run her down
[Em]She probably didn't like me anyhow
So I [F]watched her disappear
[G]into a cloud of [C]dust

[Chorus 2]
I told her [F]way up yonder
past the [G]caution light
There's a lit[F]tle country store
with an [G]old Coke sign
You gotta [F]stop in and ask Miss Bell
[G]for some of her sweet tea[Am]
Then a [F]left will take you to the [Dm]interstate
But a [F]right will bring you
[G]right back here to [C]me

[Bridge 1]
Is this [F]Georgia heat playin' [G]tricks on me
Or am [C]I really seei[G]n' what I t[Am]hink I see?
The [F]woman of my [G]dreams
comin' back to [F]me

[Solo 1]
[C][C][Em][Em]
[F][G][C][C]

[Outro 1]
She went [F]way up yonder
past the [G]caution light
[F]Don't know why, but som[G]ethin' felt right
When she [F]stopped in and asked Miss Bell
[G]for some of her sweet tea[Am]
Mama gave her a [F]big 'ol glass
and sent her [G]right back here to [C]me
Thank [F]God for good di[G]rections
and turnip [C]greens
