South of Cincinnati

by Dwight Yoakam, from "Guitars, Cadillacs..."

---------------------------------------------------------------

Intro : G C G

CHORUS :

G D/F# C G

If you ever get south of Cincinnati

C D G D D/E D/F#

Down where the dogwood trees grow

G D/F# C G

If you ever get south of the Mason Dixon

C D G D D/E D/F#

To the home you left so long ago

G D/F# C G

If you ever get south of the Ohio River

C D G D D/E D/F#

Down where Dixieland begins

G D/F# C G

If you ever get south of Cincinnati

C D G C G

I'll be yours again

G C G

She pulled the letter from the pages of her Bible

G D G

And a rose pressed inside the Book of Luke

G C G

For fourteen years she'd write each day but keep it hidden

G D G

Refused to even speak his name but still she wrote

Chorus

At a cold gray apartment in Chicago

A cigarette drowns inside a glass of gin

He lies there drunk, but it don't matter drunk or sober

He'll never read the words that pride won't let her send

Chorus
