Intro
Em D G C A  Em D G B Em

               Em         D    G       C        A    D DA D D A
Well there's a peach tree on a hill in northern Geogia
        Em      D       G        B      Em
Where a teenage boy sits starin' at the ground
Em        D         G         C    A
Soon he'll leave to join the rebel soldiers
Em      D             G         B      Em
For the Cumberland and Nashville he is bound

        Em      D             G       C       A      D DA D D A
He goes down to ride with the Bedford Forrest Calvalry
   Em           D         G        B        Em
He could shoot a man at a hundred yards or more
Em            D            G    C    A
But he knows he's just like any other soldier
      Em          D           G     B        Em
If they spill his blood he'll never ride no more


Chorus:
Em     G  A                                 Em
Don't you know I'm just a lonesome boy from dixie
D                      B     Em
Help me lord I feel so all alone
A                                      Em
Don't you know I'm a lonesome boy from dixie
C       D          G    B         Em
Gone to war and I just wanna get home


        Em       D          G      C       A        D DA D D A
When the battle started the rebels were outnumbered
    Em        D           G      B     Em
They shot his leg with an angry cannonball
Em        D        G          C       A
The medic came and said we'll all be lucky
      Em        D       G        B       Em
If the boy from Georgia makes it home at all   (to Chorus)

               Em         D     G      C        A       D DA D D A
Well there's a peach tree on a hill in northern Georgia
        Em           D      G      B       Em
Where a horse stands like a statue made of stone
Em      D       G          C      A
Flowers bless a grave down in the meadow
        Em       D        G       B       Em
Now the lonesome boy from dixie's made it home

Chorus 2:
Em    G   A                                 Em
Don't you know I'm just a lonesome boy from dixie
D                       B   Em
Help me Lord, I feel so all alone
A                                      Em
Don't you know I'm a lonesome boy from dixie
        C        D         G     B        Em
Well we lost the war and I just wanna get home
