_ _ _ _ _ _ _
I have solved my problem and I'm ready to pick.
Well I am too.
Like the days of old when me and you and Larry McNeely and Bob, you know.
_ 12 years ago.
Where'd you go?
Well you showed me a lick back [G#m] then.
[A#] _
[Bm] _ [A] And I want to hear that.
[C] Do we want to hear Southern Nights people?
[D#] _
_ _ [B] _ I _ _ _ want _ [E] _ to thank Jerry Reed for this thing because this song wouldn't have made it without him.
_ _ _ [C#] _ [G#] _
[A#] _ [A#] _ [A] _ [E] _ _ _ [C] [C#] Have you ever felt [F#] a Southern Night? _ _
You're [A] just free as a breeze and not to mention trees.
A [G#m] whistling tune that you know [B] and love so.
_ _ _ [E] Southern Nights, [C#]
well they're just as good even [F#] when closed you're eyes. _
And you know what Reed?
[A] I'll apologize.
Yes I will.
_ To [G#m] anyone who can truly say [B] they have found a better way.
_ [E] _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ [G#] _
[A#] _ _ [D#] _ [E] Southern Skies.
[C#] _
Come on, [F#] don't tell Southern Skies. _
_ _ [A] Well it's precious beauty lies just beyond the eye.
He goes, [G#m] goes running through your soul [B] like a story told of old, _ [E] old man.
_ [C#]
He and his dog that walked [F#] the old land. _
_ Every [E] flower touched his little [A] hand as [G#m] he slowly walked by.
[B] The weeping willows would cry for [E] joy. _ _ _
_ _ Lots of joy.
_ _ [G#] _
[A#] _ [A] Oh [E] well it feels so good, don't it?
[C#] Life just feels so good, it's [F#] frightening.
Don't you know I wish I could just stop the whole damn world [C#m] from [A] fighting.
_ _ All _ _ _ [G#m] _ _ [B] the _
_ _ _ [E] mystery.
_ _ [C#]
Like this and [Fm] many [F#] others in the trees, yeah. _
And don't you know [A] they're just glowing with the night. _
In [B] them Southern [E] Skies. _ _ _
_ [B] _ [E] Well, Southern Eye was [C#] _
good, it's a bright [F#] man, don't you know I wish I could just stop
[F#] all the people in the world [C#m] from fighting.
Have [A] you _ _
_ _ _ [G#m] _ _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [C] _ [C#] _
ever [F] felt [F#] this strong? _ _ _
_ You [A] just go in the night, _ [E] and them [B] Southern [E] _ Skies, _ _
_ _ _ [F#] [A#] Oh, dear, [Bm] just [C] love [D#] them [E] Southern Eyes.
