C
just like the way that you ran to wine
          F
when they made the new milk turn
G
Jesus, a friend in the better times
         F
let your mother's bible burn
C
freedom, a fever you suffered through
        F
and the dog drank from your cup
G
frozen, the river that baptized you
        F
and the horse died standing up


F                            C G F
  but when a southern anthem rings
                        C G F
she will buckle to that sound
                          C G F
when that southern anthem sings
                        C G  F
it will lay her burdens down
