Intro.: |(D)(D/F#)(G)(D/F#)|(A) / / / | x 2
She had a (D)dead-end (D/F#)job at the (G)National (A)Bank
And a (D)deadbeat (D/F#)husband who (G)always (A) drank
So when he (D)didn't come (D/F#)home, she had the (G)gin to (A)thank
For the (Bm)tears (C#m)in (D)her (G)eyes
So (Bm)Dixie packed (C#m)up and said (D)her good-(E)-byes
(Chorus)
She went (D) driving (G) so (A)far away nobody's gonna find her
(D) Flying (G) just (A)fast enough, to leave it all behind her
(Bm) But she didn't know (A) till she hit the road, (D) deep in her soul (G)
(Em)She's got the fire and the fight of a gypsy, (G) ain't nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
Solo: |(D)(D/F#)(G)(D/F#)|(A) The heart of Dixie |(D)(D/F#)(G)(D/F#)|(A) / / / |
It's a (D)funny (D/F#)thing when your (G)world falls (A)down
It's got a (D)way of showing (D/F#)you what you're (G)all a-(A)-bout
Now (D)Dixie's got her (D/F#)wheels (G)pointed (A)south
And she ain't (Bm)never (C#m)look-(D)ing (G)back
(Bm)Nobody (C#m)knew she was (D)brave like (E) that
(Chorus)
She went (D) driving (G) so (A)far away nobody's gonna find her
(D) Flying (G) just (A)fast enough, to leave it all behind her
(Bm) But she didn't know (A) till she hit the road, (D) deep in her soul (G)
(Em)She's got the fire and the fight of a gypsy, (G) ain't nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
Solo: |(D)(D/F#)(G)(D/F#)|(A) The heart of Dixie |(Bm) / (C#m)(D)|(A) ---
Yeah, (D)Dixie woke (D/F#)up to the (G)truth one (A) day
Grabbed her (D)cheap sun-(D/F#)glasses and her (G)lipstick (A) case
(Chorus)
She went (D) driving (G) so (A)far away nobody's gonna find her
(D) Flying (G) just (A)fast enough, to leave it all behind her
(Bm) But she didn't know (A) till she hit the road, (D) deep in her soul (G)
(Em)She's got the fire and the fight of a gypsy, (G) ain't nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie
