LAY ME DOWN IN DIXIE

INTRO:  G  D G

G              D      C                   G
Lay me down in Dixie, let the world go by me, 
                     D                   G
I’m gonna stay right there ‘till Gabriel calls
                        D   C               G
Pull your dreams around me, wrap me in your memory,
             D             G
Lord, I love Dixie most of all

D                               C           G
Somewhere in the land where the warm sun is shining
                                                  D 
Somewhere someone’s speaking in the warm southern drawl
    G          D      C                     G           
Lay me down in Dixie, where they understand me,
             D             G
Lord, I love Dixie most of all

G              D          C                      G
Lay me down in Dixie, and when they come to take me,
                      D               G
You know that I’ll be ready when they call
                    D                 C            G
For I have seen the daylight, so I do not fear the midnight,
             D             G
Lord, I love Dixie most of all


D                               C           G
Somewhere in the land where the warm sun is shining
                                                  D 
Somewhere someone’s speaking in the warm southern drawl
    G          D      C                     G           
Lay me down in Dixie, where they understand me,
             D             G
Lord, I love Dixie most of all
             D             G
Lord, I love Dixie most of all
