Intro:
Fadd9 C Am Fadd9 C x4 (Harmonica comes in after first measure) Fadd9 C When I die lord won't you put my soul up on a train Fadd9 C Won't you send it Southbound give it a cool bluesman name Fadd9 C I've been lost out on those back roads so many times I've gone blind Fadd9 C Losing faith in my family had drove me right out my damn mind
Chorus:
Am Fadd9 C But on the South side of heaven won't you take me home Am Fadd9 C Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord it's gettin' cold
Short Break:
Fadd9 C Am Fadd9 C x2
Fadd9 C Well I've been a desperado in west Texas for so long lord, I need a change Fadd9 C And for ten long years, this old place ain't seen a drop of rain Fadd9 C And that wind blows everyday Lord, oh like a desert snow Fadd9 C Like a lost bound train, running on cocaine and out of control
Chorus:
Am Fadd9 C But on the South side of heaven won't you take me home Am Fadd9 C Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord it's gettin' cold
Long Break:
Fadd9 C Am Fadd9 C x4 (end midway on Em while starting the next verse)
Play this next verse very slowly:
Am Fadd9 C Along those Louisiana byways… lonesome highway's rollin' on Fadd9 C Won't you take me where the poor man lives… it's where I call home Fadd9 C And can't you see that a breeze… is nothin' but a change in pace Fadd9 C ... Money can't buy my soul… 'cause it comes from a hard earned place
Kick back up to the standard tempo for the rest of the song:
Chorus: (x2)
Am Fadd9 C But on the South side of heaven won't you take me home Am Fadd9 C Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord it's gettin' cold
Outro:
Fadd9 C Am Fadd9 (Repeat until fade)
