[N] [D]
[A]
[C] [G]
[D]
He was born in the big iron ship [F] deep in the heart [G] of Dixie, guess who [Dm] was now?
Rest on the good boat, [F] ought to take [G] a good look at [D] what's going on.
[C] His daddy [G] was a Birmingham [D]
lawman, [C]
serving [G] other people through [A] and through.
They say [D] blood is thicker than water, [F]
so the boy [G] got a badge and a [D] suit of blue.
He worked [G]
long on southern [D]
justice, practiced [G] his law out on the [A]
street.
He drew the [G]
line for [Dm] the criminal [G] mind's sea, [F]
dedicated [C] to keep God's children [D]
free.
There are two sides to every big city, [F] and he walked [G] on the one that wasn't pretty.
[D]
A solitary ranger, he had to deal [G] with danger [D] around every turn.
[C] Every day [G] was a tightrope of [D] decision,
[C] between a [G] 44 and a [A] heart of gold.
Some of [D] those hard kids' [F] confrontations cut him like [G] a switchblade to [D] his soul.
He [G] worked long on [D] southern justice, practiced his [G] law out on the [A] street.
He drew the [G] line for [D] the criminal mind's [G] sea, [F] dedicated [C] to keep God's children [Dm] free.

[Dm]
[G]
[A]
Late [D] one night down on Backstreet [F] Alley, he walked up on [G] a bad deal going [Dm] down.
[D] He knew what he'd done [F] when he saw [G] that shotgun [D] swing by.
[C] He drew, then [G] he froze in [D] hesitation [C] when he saw [G] that 14-year [A]-old face.
Then [Dm] the fire from that shotgun [F] barrel blew all his [G] burdens away.
[D]
[F]
Whoa, blew [G] his burdens [D] away.
He [G] worked long on southern [D]
justice, practiced [G] his law out on [A] the street.
He drew [G] the line [D] for the criminal mind's [G] sea, [F]
dedicated [G] to keep God's children
[D] free.
[Dm] He [G] worked long on southern [D]
justice, practiced [G] his law out on [A] the street.
He drew the [G]
line for [D] the criminal [G] mind's sea, [F]
dedicated [G] to keep God's children [D]
free.
[F]
Dedicated to keep God's [Dm] children free.
[Bb]
Whoa, [C] Lord, keep them [D] free.
[F] [G]
[Dm] Keep them free.
[F] Oh, you [C] southern justice.
[D] [Bb] Oh, [C] [Dm]
[F]
[G]
[Dm] you southern justice.
[F] [C] Oh, [Dm]
[Bb]
[C]
you southern justice.
