Southern Son(capo) chords - Lee Kernaghan


            CAPO 2

INTRO: D

D
Two hundred year ago they came in ships
With words of loathin' hangin off their lips
Cast out from the country of their birth
                        G   C      D  
Transported here to the end of the earth
          G
For their natural lives
               A
Here under the southern skies

CHORUS:

G              D 
I'm a southern son
        A           D 
And I'm proud to be one
G              D                    G-Bm-A 
Working in the heat till the day is done
      G            D        A            Bm
I was born to this land and I"ll make my stand
G G-Bm-A D It's in my blood, Ohhh I'm a southern son D They pushed the rail across the great divide And in this arid land they lived and died The settlers followed to the great unknown G C D Their children called this southern land their home G A Dreams were won and lost under the southern cross CHORUS: G D I'm a southern son A D And I'm proud to be one G D G-Bm-A Working in the heat till the day is done G D A Bm I was born to this land and I"ll make my stand G G-Bm-A D It's in my blood, Ohhh I'm a southern son D We hold the future in our own hands We'll right the wrongs in the land of the free G C D We'll be the masters of our destiny G A Freedom for every man, Here in the southern land CHORUS: G D I'm a southern son A D And I'm proud to be one G D G-Bm-A Working in the heat till the day is done G D A Bm I was born to this land and I"ll make my stand G G-Bm-A It's in my blood, Ohhh CHORUS: G D I'm a southern son A D And I'm proud to be one G D G-Bm-A Burnin' in the heat till the day is done G D A Bm I was born to this land and I"ll make my stand G G-Bm-A D It's in my blood, Ohhh I'm a southern son D G-C-D Ohhhhhh I'm a southern son
