[E] [A] [E] [B] .
[E] .
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.
I sang Dixie as he died .
People just walked on by as I cried.
The bottle [A] had a round of tin of all his rebel [E] pride.
So I sang Dixie [B] .
as [E] he died .

He said listen to me son while you [B] still [E] can.
[A] Run back home to that southern land don't [E] you see.
What life here has done to [B] me .
They [E] closed those old blue [F#m] [E] [A] eyes.
And fell limp, to get to my side.
He said no [E] more pain now he's [B].
safe back home, [E] Dixie.
I sang Dixie as he died .
