[Intro]
Bb Eb G7 C7 F7 Bb
Bb
If you've ever seen that ol? Mississippi
Eb G7
The queen of the Delta Land
C7 F7
Then you'll understand
Bb
Why I've got the Blues For Dixie.
Bb
If you've ever been, to Tennessee when
Eb G7
Those old cotton fields were white
C7 F7
In pale moonlight
Bb
Then you've had the Blues For Dixie.
[Chorus]
Bb
If you've seen the glamour, of the Alabama
C7
Moon shining in the sky, if you've got a baby
F7
In Birmingham maybe, then you'll know the reason why
Bb
That I'm gonna be blue, til I'm on that old choo choo
Eb G7
Headin' down South again
C7 F7
There goes that train
Bb
That's leavin' me Blue For Dixie.
