I sang Dixie as he died .
People just walked on by as I cried.
The [G#] bottle [A] had a round of tin of all his rebel [E] pride.
I sang Dixie [B] .
as [E] he died .
Said way [B] down yonder [C#m] in the land [G#m] of cotton.
[A] Old [G#m] times [F#m] ain't [A] as rotten [E] as they are.
On this damn dope LA [B] street.
They [F#m] [D#] [E] drew a dying [F#m] [E] [A] breath.
Laid his head to get my chest.
[E] Please Lord, take [B] your soul back home, [E] Dixie.
