I [F#m] am Jeremiah Dixon, I am a Geordie boy,
Glass of wine with you [A] sir and the ladies I'll [D] enjoy.
[F#m] _ _ [E] Old Durham [A] and old [D] Thumberland, [A] _
[E] is measured [A] up by my [D] own [F#m] hand, _
[E] It [A] was my fate [D] from birth, _ [F#m] to make my mark [E] upon the earth. _ _ _
_ [F#m] He calls me Charlie Mason, _ stargazer am I,
It seems that I was born to [A] chart [D] the evening sky.
[A] They [E] cut me [A] out for baking [D] bread, [E] but I [A] had other [D] dreams [F#m] instead.
_ [E] This baker's [A] boy from [D] the West Country, _ [F#m] would join the Royal [E] Society. _
We _ _ [A] are [E] sailing [F#m] to [D] Philadelphia, _ [A] _ a world [C#m] away [Bm] from the [E] coldy tide.
_ [C#m] Sailing [F#m] to Philadelphia, [D] _ _ [F#m] _ to draw [E] the line, _ [D] the [E] Mason [A] Dixon line. _ _ _ _ _

[F#m] Now you're a good surveyor Dixon, but I swear you'll make me mad,
The West will kill us [A] both, you gullible [D] Geordie lad.
[F#m] _ _ [E] You [A] talk [D] of liberty, _ [E] how can [A] America [D] be free?
[F#m] _
[E] A Geordie [A] and a [D] baker's boy, [F#m] in the forests of [E] _ Iroquois. _ _ _
_ [F#m] Now hold your head up Mason, see America lies there,
The morning tide has raised the capes of [D] Delaware.
_ _ [A] _ [E] Come [A] up and [D] feel the sun, _ _ [E] a new [A] [D] morning's begun.
_ [F#m] _ [E] Another [A] day will [D] make it clear, _ [F#m] why your star should [E] guide us here.
We _ _ [A] are sailing [E] to [F#m] Philadelphia, [D] _ _ [A] a [C#m] world away [Bm] from the [E] coldy tide.
