ALL I CAN DO IS WRITE ABOUT IT

Lynyrd Skynyrd

 G
     G D C (spoken "2-3-4")
G D Em C, G D C

 GD
Well this life that I've lived
 EmC
Has took me everywhere
 GDC
 There ain't no place I ain't never gone
 GD
But it's kinda like the sayin
 EmC
That you heard so many times
 GDC
Well there just ain't no place like home

 GDC
       
 GDEmC
Did you ever see a she-gator protect her youngins
 GDC
Or the fish in a river swiwin free
 GDEmC
Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina
 GDC
Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennesee

 GDC
And lord I can't make any changes
 GDC
 All I can do is write 'em in a song
 GDEmC
 Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin
 GDC
 Lord take me and mine before that comes

 GDCGDC
               

 GDC
 Like to see the mountain stream a flowing
 GDC
Do you like to see a youngin with his dog
 GDEmC
 Did you ever stop and think about well the air you're breathing
 GDC
 Well you better listen to my song

And lord I can't make any changes
All I can do is write 'em in a song
Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin
Lord take me and mine before it comes

(key change to A for piano solo)
A E D (played 4x)
(back to G)

 GDC
 I'm not tryin to put down no big city
 GDC
But the things they write about us is just a bore
 GDEmC
 You can take a boy out of old Dixieland
 GDC
 But you'll never take Dixie from a boy

 GDC
 And lord I can't make any changes
 GDC
 All I can do is write 'em in a song
 GDEmC
 Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin
 GDC
 Lord take me and mine before that comes
 GDAmC
Yes well I can see the concrete a slowly creeping
 GDC
 Lord take me and mine before that comes.
