Now you countrGy fools in your one-hoEm7rse town, you can laugh Gat me Em7
It's GplaiEm7n as rain that you've nGever been down Em7to the southern sea
To Gsee me now is like Em7watching a fish on Gdry land Em7
I Gonly wish you could Em7see me down in the F/Cis- Clands
CMister, tDhat's my Ghome
What a Ffool I was to Cleave the only Am7happiness I've C/Dknown. G Em7 G Em7
You see Gme comin', you wink yoEm7ur eye and call me CaptaGin Jim Em7
And when I GdoEm7n't do nothin' but to walk on by you say,
G "Baby get a load oEm7f him."
GAll I need is the Em7sea and the sky and GI know where I Em7stand
inGstead Em7of you hicks straigF/Cht out of the sticCks deciding I ain't a man
CYou'll neDver understand; G
Up Fhere I'm just a Cwhiskey bum but Am7down there I'm a Dking
It Fsounds just like the Cangels up in heaAm7ven when they Dsus4sing:
D7"Welcome Ghome,Em7 Gwelcome homeEm7." --G Such a sight to Em7see
insFtead of some SalvCation G/BArmy Am7sister singin'
"C/DNearer My God to GThee."Em7 G Em7
Now I Gknow that the Yankee wEm7hiskey is Gtakin' away my Em7mind
and I Gknow that run is the Em7only drink Gsuitable to man-Em7kind
And I GknEm7ow that tGhis tree I'm underEm7 is shaped entirely wrong
I Gneed to see a gEm7entle palm tree andF/C I won't wait too Clong
I can fCeel that it's Dcomin' on sGtrong
The Ffirst cold wind of Cwinter is Am7flappin' in my Dclothes
FShowin' me the Cway with the dirAm7ection that it C/Dblows.
Welcome Ghome, Em welcome homGe, let it Em7blow. (repeat and fade)
