Midnight Special Band - Cairo guitar tab

Verse 1

I remember those early mornins

when mama woke me up for school,

and we walked thru that muddy Georgia clay.

As the rain fell on my shoulders,

it'd help to set the mood,

and I said, "I'm leavin here, yeah, someday."

Chorus 1

Take me away from the place where I was born,

even though the woods still run so wide and deep.

Take me away from the place where i was born,

'cause Cairo ain't the place I want to be.

Take me away from the place where I was born,

even though the woods still run so wide and deep.

Take me away from the place where i was born,

'cause Cairo ain't the place I want to be.

Verse 2

Now I am a grown man,

want to start a family.

But this city ain't the place for kids to be.

But back home in the country,

where the land is still so free,

you can smell the flowers and still hang a swing from

a tree.

Chorus 2

Take me home to the place where I was born,

where the woods still run so wide and yet so deep.

Take me home to the place where i was born,

'cause Cairo's on my mind and in my dreams.

Take me home to the place where I was born,

where the woods still run so wide and yet so deep.

Take me home to the place where i was born,

'cause Cairo's on my mind and in my dreams.

And after all this time mama still waits there for me.
