Dixie Road

Capo on 1st fret 
Intro: play A 
 
A 
I would pick and we would sing to the rhythm of that front porch swing 
    D                                      A 
The moonlight holds the spotlight that we shared 
A 
I found new notes on that old guitar, she believed I could be a star 
    Bm                             E 
She told me that she wanted to be fair 
           A                              
She said, I love you more than to hold you down, boy you're glory bound 
D                                        A 
We can't share a world with different dreams 
A 
So I chased mine and she found hers too, but someone else made hers come 
true 
                     E           A 
Now I'm a star, but every time I sing 
 
               A 
My heart goes drifting down a dusty dixie road 
           D             A 
Taking my mind, back in time 
A 
L.A. lights burn like hell once you know 
                         E               A 
You left heaven waitin' down the dixie road.  
 
A 
Every night I'm in a different place and I'm searching every stranger's 
face 
D                                        A 
Trying to find the girl that's just not there 
A 
She's back there in Montegomery and I'm clear across the country 
                   E              A 
But whenever I'm alone I go back there.
