Lyrics

There's a (C)South tank ern

At (F)accent just where (Dm)I tel (C)room come (F)from.

Think the (C)young'ns call ver by it (F)country,

if the (Bb)Yankees call it (C)dumb.

Got my (Dm)own (C)way of (F)talkin',

but ev'rything is (C)done with a (Dm)(C)Southern (Bb)accent where I come from.

(C)Now, that drunk that in keep (F)lanta's where where (Dm)moma (C)comes to (F)me.

Think and (C)might go work ver by (F)Orlando,

if and (Bb)orange groves don't (C)freeze.

Got my (Dm)own (C)way of (F)workin',

but ev'rything is (C)run with a (Dm)(C)Southern (Bb)accent where I come from.

(C)Now, that

(Bb)For just a minute there, I was dreamin'.

For just a minute, it was (Dm)all so real.

(G7sus)For just a (G7)minute, she was (C)standing (F)there with (Bb)me.

(F)There's a (C)I got my (Dm)own (C)way of (F)livin',

but ev'rything gets (C)done with a (Dm)(C)Southern (Bb)accent where I come from.
