[A]There's a [F#m]sout[E]hern

..[A]accent - where [F#m]I c[E]ome

..[A]from

The [F#m]young 'uns [E]call it

..[A]country - the [D]yankees call

..it [E]dumb,

I got my [F#m]own [E]way of

..[A]talking - but [D]everything

..gets [E]done,

With a [F#m]sout[E]hern [D]accent

..- where I come from.[A(INTRO

..RIFF)]

Now that [F#m]drunk tank [E]in

..At[A]lanta - is just a

..[F#m]motel r[E]oom to

[A]me,

Think I [F#m]might go w[E]ork

..Or[A]lando - if them [D]orange

..groves don't

[E]freeze,

Got my [F#m]own [E]way of

..[A]working - but [D]everything

..is [E]run,

With a [F#m]sout[E]hern [D]accent

..- where I come from.[A(INTRO

{c:bridge:}

[F#m]For just a minute there [D]I

..was dreaming

[F#m]For just a minute it was

..[D]all so real

[B]For just a minute she was

..[E]standing[A]there - with

..[D]me.

There's a [F#m]dream [E]I keep

..[A]having - where my [F#m]momma

..[E]comes to

[A]me,

And [F#m]kneels down [E]over by

..the [A]window - and [D]says a

..prayer for

[E]me,

Got my [F#m]own [E]way of

..[A]praying - but [D]everything

..one's [E]begun,

With a [F#m]sout[E]hern [A]accent

..- where[D] I come [E]from.

Got my [F#m]own [E]way of

..[A]living - but e[D]verything is

..[E]done,

With a [F#M]sout[E]hern [D]accent

..- where I come from.[A(INTRO
