The South

  E               A             D
Boots and buckles, red clay and 
          E
sand
 E                   A            
My point ain’t subtle here, I’m a 
        D           E
Southern man
   E                           A
Where the beer seems cooler and the 
women seem hotter
          D                   E
Where the world don’t seem so damn 
modern
       E                 A        
And a good ole boy like me still 
        D         E
has a chance
     E        A            D     
This is where I was Born this is 
            E
where I’ll die
    E               A

Don’t you wanna get down and dirty
  A
Cause, Florida I’m thirsty,
 D                              E
Hit me with your Tennessee whiskey 
and crank it up loud
                A
Laid back, you crazy old timer,
        D                    
sweet magnolia, dive bars and 
      E
diners, oh yeah
         A                      D
Oh, and even if you’re up North, 
c’mon down, c’mon down…
                  E             A 
Oh, it’s all about the South.
