G D C (spoken "2-3-4")

G D Em C, G D C

G D

Well this life that I've lived

Em C

Has took me everywhere

G D C

There ain't no place I ain't never gone

G D

But it's kinda like the sayin

Em C

That you heard so many times

G D C

Well there just ain't no place like home

G D C

G D Em C

Did you ever see a she-gator protect her youngins

G D C

Or the fish in a river swiwin free

G D Em C

Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina

G D C

Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennesee

G D C

And lord I can't make any changes

G D C

All I can do is write 'em in a song

G D Em C

Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin

G D C

Lord take me and mine before that comes

G D C

G D C

G D C

Like to see the mountain stream a flowing

Do you like to see a youngin with his dog

G D Em C

Did you ever stop and think about well the air you're breathing

G D C

Well you better listen to my song

And lord I can't make any changes

All I can do is write 'em in a song

Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin

Lord take me and mine before it comes

(key change to A for piano solo)

A E D (played 4x)

(back to G)

G D C

I'm not tryin to put down no big city

But the things they write about us is just a bore

G D Em C

You can take a boy out of old Dixieland

G D C

But you'll never take Dixie from a boy

G D C

And lord I can't make any changes

All I can do is write 'em in a song

G D Em C

Cus I can see the concrete a slowly creepin

G D C

Lord take me and mine before that comes

G D Am C

Yes well I can see the concrete a slowly creeping

G D C

Lord take me and mine before that comes.
