Here is an attempt I made at "Dixie Chicken" by Little Feat.

Any help in improving it would be greatly appreciated, especially

the little guitar part which I cannot quite get it right, as well

as some of the lyrics.

It sounds a lot better if you play these chords up the neck a bit....

DIXIE CHICKEN by Little Feat

A E

I've seen the bright lights of Memphis, and the Commodore Hotel

A

and underneath the streetlamp, I met a southern belle

C C# D A E

Well she took me to the river, where she cast her spell

A

and in that southern moonlight, she sang a song so well

CHORUS

E A E

If you'll be my dixie chicken, I'll be your Tenessee lamb

A E A A E A

and we can walk together down in Dixieland, down in Dixieland

Well we made all the hotspots, my money flowed like wine

and then that low-down southern whiskey, began to fog my mind

and I don't remember church bells, or the money I put down

on the white picket fence and boardwalk, of the house at the edge of town

oh but boy do I remember, the strain of her refrain

and the nights we spent together, and the way she'd call my name

CHORUS

Well it's been a year since you ran away,

yes that guitar player should could play

she always liked to sing along,

she's always handy with a song

and then one night in the lobby, yeah, of the Commodore Hotel

I chanced to meet a bartender, who said he knew her well

and as he handed me a drink, he began to hum a song

and all the boys there at the bar, began to sing along

CHORUS
