Lynyrd Skynyrd

(I think the Clean Electric in this song has a little Chorus. But if you do this song fully Acoustic, itll give you cold chills.)

Transcribed by: Eric Snyder

Intro: G D Em C/ G D C (stop on C)

 GDEmCGGC
Verse: Well this  life that I  live has  took me everywhere  theyre aint no  place I aint never  gone.

 GDEmCGDC
Well its  kinda like the  saying that youve  heard so  many  times. Well, theres  just aint  no place like   home.

 GDC
 GDEmCGDC
Verse: If youve  ever seen a  She Gator  protect her   youngin. Or a  fish in the  river swimming  free.

 GDEmCGDC
Did you  ever see the  beauty of the  hills of  Carolina? Or the   sweetness of the  grass of  Tennessee?

 GDCGDC
Chorus: And  Lord, I cant  make any  changes.  All I can  do is  write em in a  song.

 GDEmCGDC
Yes, but  I can see the  concrete a  slowly  creeping.  Lord  take me and  mine before that  comes.

(A little Fiddle playing, here are the chords.)

G D C (twice)

 GDCGDC
Verse: Do ya  like to see a  Mountain stream a   flowin? Do ya  like to see a  youngin with his   dog?

 GDEmCGDC
Did ya  ever stop and  think about well the  air  youre  breathing? Well  ya better  listen to my   song.

Repeat Chorus

 GA
(Another Instrumental break, I dont have my guitar handy, but I think  it either stays in  or goes to possibly . If you find out 100% sure, tell  me.)

 GDCGDC
Verse: Im not  trying to put down  no big  city. But the   things they write about  us is just a  bore.

 GDEmCGDC
You can  take a boy out  of ol  Dixie  land, Lord, but  youll  never take ol  Dixie from a  boy.

Repeat Chorus

 GDEm
Repeat last line of Chorus and end with: And  Lord take me and  mine  before that  comes

(On last line, only hit chord once. This a great song, my e-mail is esnyder@zeus.chapel1.com) My favorite line is, "You can take a boy out of ol Dixie Land, but youll never take ol Dixie from a boy." That is so daggon true! Thanks see-ya!
