When I was 15 I dreamed of leaving my home
D C
I had to see the world
G D
And live like a rolling stone
D C G D
I heard California was paved in gold
Em
So I hopped on that train
G
It didn't come easy
Em
But I keep thinkin' bout
Bb C D
The green grass and missing my home
Chorus:
D C G D
Take me back to my southern ways
D C G C
Where I can be myself and live another day
D C G D
Take me back to my southern ways
Bb C D
Where the tall pines blow and the southern winds kiss my face
Intro Riff 2x
D C G D
Oh southern grace
D C G D
Me and my boys started a band
D C G D
Practiced everyday out on the Hell House land
D C G D
Played every honky tonk and this ol' bar
Em
To sing about Sweet 'Bama
G
We were just simple men
Em
The music is forever
Bb C
and the songs will never ever end
