_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
[B] _ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ I sang Dixie _ _ as _ he died _
_ _ People just walked on by _ as I _ cried _
_ The bottle [A] had a writing _ of all his rebel [E] pride _ _
_ _ I sang _ _ Dixie [B] _ _ as [E] he died
He _ _ _ said way down yonder [C#m] in the land of cotton
[A] Old times [G#m]
ain't [F#m] as rotten [E] as they are
On this damn dope LA [B] street _ _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ Then he drew a dying _ [A] breath
And laid his head against my chest
Said [E] Lord, take your [B] soul back home to [E] Dixie _ _
_ I sang _ Dixie _ _ as he died _ _
_ _ People just walked on by _ _ as I _ cried _
_ The bottle had [A] a writing _ _ of all his rebel [E] pride _ _
_ So I sang _ Dixie _
[B] _ _ as [E] he died
He _ [E] _ _ [Em] _ _ _ _

[B] _ _ [B] _ _ [E] _ _ _ _
_ _ said listen to me son [B] while you still can
[A] Run back home to that southern land don't [E] you see
What life here has done to [B] me _ _
Then _ _ [E] _ he closed those old blue [F#m] eyes
[A] And fell limp, gets my side no more [E] pain
Now he's [B] safe back home [E] to Dixie _ _
_ I sang _ Dixie _ as _ he died _ _
_ People just walked on by _ as I _ cried _
_ The bottle had [A] a writing _ _ of all his rebel [E] pride
_ So _ I sang _ Dixie _
[B] _ _ as he [E] died _ _
_ I sang Dixie _ _
[B] _ _ as [A] he _ died
