Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D][A][D][G][A][D][G][D]
[Dm]
Mocking[A]bird mornings,
[G]low fog in the [D]fields
[Dm]Folks in con[F#]vertible auto[Bm]mobiles
Black[G]top getting [Abdim]hot ter than the
[E]hinges on [D]the gates to hell,
[Bm]might come[B] up a sh[E]ower of rain,
but you [Bb]can 't ever [A]tell.
[Dm]Dogs on the [A]front porch,
[Dm]too lazy to run.
[D]Fat snake on a f[F#]lat rock,
[Bm]baking in the sun.
And that [G]cotton candy [Abdim]air
just seems [Dm]to melt in your
[Bm]mouth.[B]
[E]It's summer way dow[A]n
[Dm]south.[G][D][G][D][A]
[D]Peaches, toma[A]toes,
and a [Dm]sweet [D]potato pie
[Dm]Fresh [D]lima [F#m]beans
[F#]and homemade b[Bm]lackberry wines
[G]Corn on the [Abdim]cob and catfish
[Dm]right out the [Bdim]lake
Got some [E]pineapple upside [Bb]down [A]cake
[Dm]Kids in the back[A]yard spittin'
[Dm]watermelon seeds
With juice on their [F#]noses
and [Bm]mud [G]on their k[Bm]nees
And [G]later there'll be [Abdim]little bear
feet [D]up [Bm]on the couch
[B]It's [E]summer way [A]down [Dm]south[G]
[Dm]The kudz[G]u's gone and cover[Gm]ed
up nearly [D]half of [Dm]the state
[G]Four Lane is [Gm]bul ging
with all [Dm]those out -of -state [D]plates
There's [G]a fiddle contest
[Gm]over to the [D]county [Dm]fair
[B]Yeah, you know [E]that all the [F]old [A]timer[E]s
are [A]bound to [Bdim]be ther[A]e
That re[Dm]vival tense [A]rockin'
in the [Dm]eveni[G]ng still
[Dm]Sweat pourin' off the [F#]preacher
and the [Bm]people gettin' chills
It's been [G]an all [Abdim]-day Sunday,
[Dm]dinner on the [B]ground
Now the [E]good ol' boys
are out back gettin' [Bb]drunk
[A]as Cooter Brown
[Dm]Young 'uns catchin' [A]Jun
e bugs in [Dm]a jelly [D]jar
[Dm]Couples gettin' cozy[F#] in
[Bm]the back seats of cars
[G]Heat lightnin' [Abdim]boun cin'
off [Dm]the nighttime [B]clouds
[E]It's summer way [A]down [Dm]south[G][D][G][D][A]
[D][A][D][G][Dm][D][F#][Bm]
