Chorus

        G                                                              C 
On a highway headed south to somewhere in Dixie
                 G                                                
Where the cotton blooms and spring and the snow don’t fly
                 G                                                            C 
I’m gonna rest these chillin’ bones in the southern sunshine
       G                                                                D 
And live live where the weathers warm until I Die


 G                       C                G 
North Dakota, you got my better years
                                                       D 
Montana, you got five years of my life
             G                                                 C 
But the earth’s sub-zero wind will never touch me again
 G                             D                         G 
Southern folks can’t live on snow and ice

Chorus:

        G                                                              C 
On a highway headed south to somewhere in Dixie
                 G                                                
Where the cotton blooms and spring and the snow don’t fly
                 G                                                            C 
I’m gonna rest these chillin’ bones in the southern sunshine
       G                                                                D 
And live live where the weathers warm until I Die



          G                         C                       G 
When I cross the Dixie line, I’ll throw away my coat
                                                                       D 
And my goose down underwear will have to go
      G                                                     C 
I’ll never live again where the weather chills you to the bone
      G                    D               G   A 
I’m tired of living like an Eskimo

        G                                                              C 
On a highway headed south to somewhere in Dixie

Where the cotton blooms and spring and the snow don’t fly
                 G                                                            C 
I’m gonna rest these chillin’ bones in the southern sunshine
       G                                                                D 
And live live where the weathers warm until I Die

        G                                                              C 
On a highway headed south to somewhere in Dixie
                 G                                                
Where the cotton blooms and spring and the snow don’t fly
                 G                                                            C 
I’m gonna rest these chillin’ bones in the southern sunshine
