Guitar Tabs and Lyrics For Dwight Yoakam - South Of Cincinnati

Intro : G C G

CHORUS :

       G         D/F#    C     G
If you ever get south of Cincinnati 
C               D            G     D    D/E  D/F#
Down where the dogwood trees grow
       G        D/F#         C     G
If you ever get south of the Mason Dixon
       C         D            G     D    D/E  D/F#
To the home you left so long ago
       G         D/F#        C    G
If you ever get south of the Ohio River
C          D           G     D    D/E  D/F#
Down where Dixieland begins
       G         D/F#    C     G
If you ever get south of Cincinnati
C       D       G    C  G
I'll be yours again



                G              C            G
She pulled the letter from the pages of her Bible
      G               D               G
And a rose pressed inside the Book of Luke
             G                      C               G
For fourteen years she'd write each day but keep it hidden
            G             D                  G
Refused to even speak his name but still she wrote

Chorus

At a cold gray apartment in Chicago
A cigarette drowns inside a glass of gin
He lies there drunk, but it don't matter drunk or sober
He'll never read the words that pride won't let her send

Chorus
