I got [F#m] my _ own [E] way _ [A] of talking, _ _ _ _ [D] but _ _ _ everything _ _ [E] is done _
_ _ _ with [F#] a _ [F#m] _
_ [E] southern _ _ [D] _ accent _ _ _ _ _ where I _ _ _ come _ from.
_ Now [Bm] _ [A] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ [F#m] that drunk tank _ [E] _ _ in [A]
Atlanta _ _ _ was just [F#m] a _ motel [E] _ room [A] to me.
_ _ _ I think [F#m] I might go _ [E] _ _ work [A] Orlando _ _ if them [D] _ _ orange _ groves [E] don't freeze.
_ _ I've [F#m] got my _ _ [E] own way [A] of working, _ _ _ _ _ [D] but _ _ everything _ _
[F#m] [E] is run
_ _ with [F#m] a _ _ _ [E] southern _
_ [D] _ accent _ _ _ _ _ where _ I _ _ come _ from. _ _
For _ [A] _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [D] _ just a minute there _ [F#m] _ I was dreaming.
_ [D] _ For just a minute it [F#m] was all so _ real.
_ [B] _ For just a minute she [E] was standing [A] _ _
there with [D] me. _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ There's [F#m] a _ dream [E] _ that I [A] keep having _ _ _ where [F#m] my mama _
[E] _ _ comes [A] to me _ _
and _ [F#m] she kneels _ [E] down [A] over by the window _ _ and _ [D] _ _ says a _ prayer [E] to me. _ _
_ I've got [F#m] my _ _ [E] own way [A] of praying _ _ _ and _ [D] _ _ _ _
_ _ everyone's [E] begun _ _
_ with [F#m] a _ _ _
[E] southern _ _ [D] _ accent _ _ _ _ where _ I _ _ _ come from. _
