Southern Rains

Sometimes my soul gets weary and my mind begins to wonder

D7

And like that old train the Hummingbird it goes to Alabam

G

They say home is where the heart is and mine is down in Dixie

D7

And when you go down to Dixie you’re heading for higher ground

C

(Southern rain) blowing from the coast of Mississippi

D7

(Southern rain) I feel better when those southern waters hit me

I can’t dip into Jordan seven times to ease the pain

G

D7

C

But I can pray for help and hope from southern ra-in

G

C

G

(Southern rain) like the sunshine it’s a blessing sent from heaven

A7

D7

(Southern rain) they can wash away your cares if you let them

G

C

A7

You may not believe my story and you may say I’m insane

G

D7

C

But they’re the closest thing to home those southern rains

G

G

Homesick is a feeling that a body can’t get over

D7

There’s no such thing as healing and it won’t go away with time

G

C

G

When we´re young we want to get away when we’re old we want to go back

D7

G

And we spend our lives replacing all the things we leave behind
