 I sang Dixie as he died
 
                                                            D7
 
 The people just walked on by as I cried
 
 G                                                                D
 
 The bottle had robbed him of his rebel pride
 
                        A             D
 
 So I sang Dixie as he died
 
 
 
 
 
 He said way down yonder in the land of cotton
 
 G                                                                       D
 
 Old times there aināt near as rotten as they are
 
                                          A
 
 On this damned old LA street
 
 D
 
 Then he drew his dying breath
 
 G
 
 And laid his head against my chest
 
               D                    A                              D
 
 Please Lord take his soul back home to Dixie
 
 
 
 D
 
 He said listen to me son while you still can
 
 G
 
 Run back home to that southern land
 
                   D                                                 A
 
 Donāt you see what life here has done to me?
 
 D
 
 Then he closed those big blue eyes
 
 G
 
 And fell limp against my side
 
                  D                     A                              D
 
 No more pain now heās safe back home in Dixie
