[Verse 1]
E7                               A7
Winter's gone and summertime's a coming
    D7                             G
And where I am ain't where I wanna be
      E7                      A7
I can hear my southern home a calling
         D7                                 G
And it's calling out the old wild goose and me

[Chorus]
C                      G
Flying flying south to Dixie
                             D
Lord I been so lonesome and alone
E7                              A7
Staying ain't no use because my heart's an old wild goose
    D7                                G
And tomorrow I'll be flying south and home

[Solo]

[Verse 2]
E7                              A7
I've got kissing kin down in Kentucky
D7                           G
I've got lots of aunts in Alabam
E7                            A7
Mom's a waiting down in Mississippi
       D7                         G
And my sis is in Carolina's honey land

[Outro]
C                             G
Grandma and grandpa's down in Georgia
                               D7
And my Tootsie's back in Tennessee
E7                       A7
There's a little part of southland in my heart
          D7                            G   D   G
And honey in the south is where I wanna be
D7                               G   D   G   D
Way back home in Nashville Tennessee
