Capo 3rd fret
Intro play twice: [] [] []
[] I grew up a long way from here []
[] I slept with the lights on [] for fifteen years
And [] Sabbath kept me home on Fri[]day Nights
And [] Daddy sang me Rogers
Just to [] make everything all right
[] My town wasnât even on the [] map
[G] You could pass right through it in [C] twenty seconds flat
But the [G] south was like the whole world to [C] me
[G] Wasn t easy to stay but it was [C] harder to [D] leave
[CHORUS]
Yeah I was a [C] south [D] bound [G] child
Yeah I had a [C] small [D] town [G] life
But I turned [C] out [D] all [G] right [C] in the North
[D] Living that Southern kind of [G] life
Old friends and Bibles filled the [C] house
[G] No room for money and no [C] money anyhow
[G] Deprived was something we al[C]ways heard
[G] But to me and my brother it was [C] just another word
[G] I used to think the north was the [C] end
[G] Cos people go there and they donât [C] come back [D] again
[G] But my fathers father was a [C] man of the sea
[G] He lived the southern life two [C] blocks away from [D] me
