Tonart: B major•
Verse 1
B
On the dark side of Chicago,
E
I heard an old lonesome hobo
it took my mind way back
F#
B
To Mama's dear sweet angel smile
E
And the tune she sang me as a child
B
And how my daddy left us long ago
F#
B
On a lonesome northbound track
Well he took a nip and I walked over
E
I laid my hand on a thin old shoulder
B
And in the moonlight tired old eyes
F#
Stared me right through
B
So I gave him a brand new twenty
E
And said friend this ought to be plenty
B
E
To pay for a drink
B
F#
and a memory trip with you
B
E
A
E
I said I have a love for Dixie
A
E
A
E
Cause she's where I long to be
A
E
A
And I'll go home to her someday,
E
B
just wait and see
So if you're leaving in the morning
E
Well someday I'll be joining
B
E
B
So would you save a place for me
F#
B
G#
In the heart of Dixie
C#
They say my old man rode the rails
F#
So as this hobo spun his tails
C#
My thoughts drifted off
in a dream with a mystery
G#
C#
We drank his wine till we
got Shanghai'd
F#
Slept in a boxcar side by side
C#
F#
C#
Till the morning's light struck my face
G#
C#
an d awoke me.
And on the hobo's arm hanging limp,
C#
gave me a glimpse of something
G#
that took me by surprise.
C#
Across a heart tattooed in his skin,
F#
I saw the name Dixie written there.
C#
F#
C#
And it brought a twinkle and
G#
C#
a tear into my eyes.
F#
B
As I thought, we share a love for Dixie
F#
B
F#
B
F#
And she's where we long to be
B
F#
B
And I'll go home to her someday,
F#
C#
just wait and see
So if you're leaving in the morning
F#
Well, someday I'll be joining
C#
F#
C#
Lord, save a place for me
G#
C#
A
In the heart of Dixie
D
He said, well, it's about time for my run
G
D
I've got a ride to Montgomery, son
Sir, I replied,
A
that's my old stomping ground
D
Yeah, he said he'd hung out
there on the Rippon
G
Before he left a girl named Dixie
D
G
D
And that for years now,
A
D
his soul had been Alabama bound
Well, I told him I thought
D
but that she died way back in sixty.
They say from loneliness
D
And as I said that, he just slipped away,
G
but left me thinkin' to this very day
D
G
that Dixie's darling
D
A
was the dad I'd never seen.
D
G
C
Lord, we shared a love for Dixie,
G
C
G
C
G
now he's where she went to be
C
G
C
And I'll go home to them someday,
G
D
just wait and see
He left me behind that morning,
I'll be joining
D
G
D
Lord, save a place for me
A
Bm
in the heart of Dixie
G
D
Won't save a place for me
A
D
in the heart of Itsy.
