THE NIGHT THEY DROVE OLD DIXIE DOWN - Robbie Robertson
[Verse]
F#m A/E D F#m Bm Virgil Cain is the name and I served on the Danville train F#m A/E D F#m Bm Till Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks a-gain A/E D A Bm In the winter of sixty-five, we were hungry, just barely alive A/E D By May the tenth, Richmond had fell A Bm B7sus4 It was a time I re-member all so well
[Chorus]
A/E D A/E The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
A/E D A/E The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singing. They went...
A/E F#m E D Na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na na
[Verse]
F#m A/E D F#m Bm Back with my wife in Tennessee when one day she called to me F#m A/E D F#m Bm "Virgil, quick come see! There goes Robert E. Lee" A/E D A Bm Now, I don't mind choppin' wood and I don't care if the money's no good A/E D You take what you need and you leave the rest A Bm B7sus4 But they should never have taken the very best
[Chorus]
A/E D A/E The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
A/E D A/E The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singing. They went...
A/E F#m E D Na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na na
[Verse]
F#m A/E D F#m Bm Like my father be-fore me, I will work the land F#m A/E D F#m Bm And like my brother above me, who took a rebel stand A/E D A Bm He was just eighteen, proud and brave but a Yankee laid him in his grave A/E D I swear by the mud be-low my feet A Bm B7sus4 You can't raise a Cain back up when he's in de-feat
[Chorus]
A/E D A/E The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the bells were ringing
A/E D A/E The night they drove old Dixie down
And all the people were singing. They went...
A/E F#m E D Na na na na na na, na na na na na na na na na
