Whistle Dixie
Darryl Worley

C G

I have walked the greener (C)pasture
And I've made a lot of (G)hay(C)
(G)I've gone fast and even (C)faster
I've been lost and found my (G)way(C)
(G)Got a whole lot out of (Em)livin'(C)
My simple southern (G)life(C)
Tried to do my share of (G)givin'
(D)And I know my soul's all (G)right

chorus
So, everybody whistle (C)dixie
When they lay me in the (G)ground
When that cold wind comes to (D)get me
I don't want nobody standin' (G)'round
Sheddin' tears and feelin' (C)sorry
'Cause I'm gone to see my (G)God
Everybody whistle (D)dixie
Let'em lay me 'neath the (G)sod

There's a peace of mind in (C)knowin'
That some things are meant to (G)be
Like the way my age is (C)showin'
And that you were made for (G)me
Like the sweet Savannah (Em)sunshine(C)
And the Louisianna (G)rain(C)
Things that make this life worth (G)livin'
(D)And keep a man from goin' (G)insane

repeat chorus

C G C G

Lord, I love the land of(Em) cotton(C)
Yeah, but someday I'll say (G)goodbye(C)
'Cause there's a better home (G)awaitn' 
(There's a better home awaitn')(D)
Yeah there's a mansion in the (G)sky

chorus
Everybody whistle dixie (Everybody whistle dixie)
When they lay me in the ground (When they lay me in the ground)
When that cold wind comes to get me
I don't want know body standin' 'round
Sheddin' tears and feelin' sorry (Don't want nobody feelin' sorry)
'Cause I'm going to see my God (I'm goin', I'm goin')
Everybody whistle dixie (Everybody whistle dixie)
Just let'em lay me 'neath the sod
(Everybody, whistle dixie, everybody)
