Did you ever see a she-gator protect her youngins
3& 4ea[G]nda 1& 2[D]eanda (3 4[C]alet 1alet 2 3 4eanda)
Or the fish in a river swiwin free
1&[G] 2eanda 3& [D]4eanda 1&[Em] 2eanda 3& 4[C]eanda
Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina
1& 2ean[G]da 3& 4e[D]anda (1 [C]2alet 3alet 4 1 2eanda)
Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennesee
3& 4[G]eanda 1& 2e[D]anda (3 [C]4alet 1alet 2 3 4eanda)
And lord I can't make any changes
[G]1& 2eanda 3&[D] 4eanda (1 2a[C]let 3alet 4 1 2eanda)
All I can do is write 'em in a song
[G]3& 4eanda 1&[D] 2eanda *3*[Em]& 4eanda 1[C]& 2eanda

Lord take me and mine before that comes
[G]1& 2eanda 3& [D]4eanda (1 2al[C]et 3alet 4 1 2eanda)
[G]3& 4eanda 1& 2[D]eanda (3 4alet 1[C]alet 2 3 4eanda)
[G]1& 2eanda 3& [D]4eanda (1 2[C]alet 3alet 4 1 2eanda)
Like to see the mountain stream a flowing
[G]3& 4eanda 1& 2[D]eanda (3 4alet 1a[C]let 2 3 4eanda)
Do you like to see a youngin with his dog
[G]1& 2eanda 3& [D]4eanda *1*[Em]& 2eanda 3&[C] 4eanda
Did you ever stop and think about well the air you're breathing
[G]1& 2eanda 3& 4e[D]anda ([C]1 2alet 3alet 4 1 2eanda)
Well you better listen to my song

[G]3& 4eanda 1& 2[D]eanda (3 4alet 1a[C]let 2 3 4eanda)
But the things they write about us is just a bore
