The North Won The War Again Last Night

C                        C7
Bus station in Atlanta 6:40 in the 
evening

        F                     C
She was standing cold and all alone

                              E7
I ask where she was going but she 
had no way of knowing

D7                             
Cause she was broke and long way 
       G7
from home


C                                 
Straight from New York City she 
  C7
was young thin and pretty

F                             C
She belonged in a fashion magazine

       F
I said stay with me till morning

           C               F
I've got a bed to keep you warm in

   C                G7       C
We call it southern hospitality

G7                     F         
Lying in the stillness there was 
           C
no blue or gray

G7                          F    
Only sweet surrender in the 
            C   G7
shadows where we la--y

F           G7                   
She held me close and loved this 
E7                C
southern boy just right

        D7            G7          
And the north won the war again 
   C
last night


                           C7
Morning's all around me my arms are 
all around her

      F                            
She's sleeping Lord and she looks 
  C
so fine

Between the shades of last night and
 E7
 this mornings daylight

D7                          G7
We found love's Mason Dixon line


C                            C7
And in her arms I found that love 
isn't north or south

   F                               
It isn't how you say the things you
 C
 say

         F               C        
New York City or Atlanta Cleveland
    F
 or Savanna

      C             G7         C
She's taken all the boundaries away


G7                     F         
Lying in the stillness there was 
           C
no blue or gray

G7                          F    
Only sweet surrender in the 
            C   G7
shadows where we la--y

F           G7                   
She held me close and loved this 
E7                C
southern boy just right

        D7            G7          
And the north won the war again 
   C
last night
