        G9  D  C/G

[Primeira Parte]

           G9              D
Well, this life that I've lived
    Em           C/G
Has took me everywhere
G9                    D             C/G
There ain't no place I ain't never gone
         G9              D
But it's kinda like the sayin'
         Em             C/G
That you heard so many times
            G9         D             C/G
Well, there just ain't no place like home

[Instrumental] G  D  Em  C

[Segunda Parte]

        G9          D        Em           C/G
Did you ever see a she-gator protect her younguns
   G9         D              C/G
Or fish in a river swimmin' free
        G9            D             Em            C/G
Did you ever see the beauty of the hills of Carolina
       G9                D              C/G
Or the sweetness of the grass in Tennessee

[Refrão]

    G9            D         C/G
And Lord I can't make any changes
G9               D              C/G
All I can do is write 'em in a song
     G9             D         Em      C/G
Cause I can see the concrete a slowly creepin'
G9                D                C/G
Lord take me and mine before that comes

[Terceira Parte]
       G9            D                 C/G
Do you like to see a mountain stream a-flowing
       G9            D                 C/G
Do you like to see a youn-gun with his dog
        G9             D               Em                C/G
Did you ever stop and think about, well, the air you're breathing
          G9            D      C/G
Well, you better listen to my song

[Refrão]

    G9            D         C/G
And Lord I can't make any changes
G9               D              C/G
All I can do is write 'em in a song
      G9             D         Em      C/G
Cause I can see the concrete a slowly creepin'
G9               D                C/G
Lord take me and mine before that comes

[Quarta Parte]

G9                 D               C/G
I'm not tryin' to put down no big city
        G9                  D                 C/G
But the things they write about us is just a bore
              G9          D        Em     C/G
Well, you can take a boy out of ol' Dixieland, Lord
           G9              D             C/G
But you'll never take ol' Dixie from a boy

[Refrão]

    G9            D          C/G
And Lord I can't make any changes
G9               D              C/G
All I can do is write 'em in a song
     G9             D         Em      C/G
Cause I can see the concrete a slowly creepin'
G9                D                C/G
Lord take me and mine before that comes

        G9             D         Em      C/G
I said, I can see the concrete a slowly creepin'
G                D                Em
Lord take me and mine before that comes
