  Goin' down to Muscle Shoals * Where the swamp water rhythm

                                                           C              G

D

  flows * Live the only way I know * I'm just a common man * Headed

                                        C               G                 D

                                   C                    G

  (same chords as above)

  Bright lights and limousines * Fame and fortune I have seen * Still

  searchin' for that dream * It's callin' me back home * Down to earth

  where the music's real * Singin' 'bout what the people feel * Timeless

  truth, now that's the deal * We got to pass in on, y'all * (Chorus x 3)

  (after 3 chorus)

   D         C             G                  D   C               G

  We're takin' the country back * Takin' the country on back *
