[Intro]
D G D D G D G
[Verse]
D G D
Sun kissed hair and not much makeup, high-heeled boots that lace up
G D Bm A
Two first names that came from her grandmas on both sides
D G D
She ain't ever read much Faulkner, but she could've been his daughter
Bm A D
She grew up on muddy water, southern style
[Chorus]
D Bm
Southern style, free and easy, southern style, warm and breezy
G D A
If you met her, man, be-lieve me, you'd want her to stay a while
D Bm
She says, she don't believe in strangers, only sinners with a savior
G A D G
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her southern style
[Verse]
D G D
She's a Friday night light lover, a Billy Graham fan like her mother
G D Bm A
She wants her daddy and both brothers to walk her down the aisle
D G D
She likes oysters raw for dinner, Lil Wayne and Lynyrd Skynyrd
Bm A D
Keeps her tan lines in the winter, southern style
[Chorus]
D Bm
Southern style, free and easy, southern style, warm and breezy
G D A
If you met her, man, be-lieve me, you'd want her to stay a while
D Bm
She says, she don't believe in strangers, only sinners with a savior
G A D
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her southern style
[Solo]
G G A Bm A
[Chorus]
D Bm
Southern style, free and easy, southern style, warm and breezy
G D/F# A
If you met her, man, be-live me, you'd want her to stay a while
D Bm
She says, she don't believe in strangers, only sinners with a savior
G A D
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her southern style
D Bm
You can love her, you can hate her, but you're never going to change her
G A D
If you want her, then you'll take her, --- southern style
