D
I sang Dixie as he died

                                          D7
The people just walked on by as I cried

G                                            D
The bottle had robbed him of his rebel pride

                       A             D
So I sang Dixie as he died
He said way down yonder in the land of cotton
G                                                 D
Old times there ain?t near as rotten as they are

                                         A
On this damned old LA street

D
Then he drew his dying breath

G
And laid his head against my chest

              D                    A          D
Please Lord take his soul back home to Dixie

D
He said listen to me son while you still can

G
Run back home to that southern land

                  D                           A
Don?t you see what life here has done to me?

D
then he closed those big blue eyes

G
And fell limp against my side

                 D                     A      D
No more pain now he?s safe back home in Dixie
