I actually play this each time I reach the Em. It somewhat emulates what Rich Robinson does, when playing this song in open G..
INTRO - Em - Ebm - D - Db - C - G x2 VERSE-1
G F#m Bm She she came from the land of the cotton
Em Em7 Land that was nearly forgotten by
C G… everyone
G F#m Bm And She worked and she slaved so hard
Em Em7 A big old field was her back yard
C G… in the delta sun
F C G Oh… Oh, but she sure could sing
F C G Oh… Oh, she sure could sing VERSE-2
