[Intro]
G Em7 Cadd9 G x2
[Verse 1]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
There's folks out there that'll judge a man, by the color of his skin
G Em7 Cadd9 G
There's still a fight over wrong and right that no one ever wins
G Em7 Cadd9 G
I know somewhere, there's hate out there, but don't hold that against me
G Em7 Cadd9
Oh, because that ain't my dixie
[Chorus]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's who I am, it's to give a damn for the ones that came before me
G Em7 Cadd9 G
The broken part of a southern heart, it's more than just old glory
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's a state of mind as deep and wide and as strong as the Mississippi
Em7 G Cadd9
We sing Amazing Grace and curse the heat
Yea that's my dixie
G Em7 Cadd9 G
[Verse 2]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
Nowadays you just can't believe what you see on the news
G Em7 Cadd9 G
'Round here we ain't just black and white, 'cause we're all red, white, and blue
G Em7 Cadd9 G
We're turning these towns into battlegrounds, and that don't sit well with me
G Em7 Cadd9
Oh, 'cause that ain't my dixie
[Chorus]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's who I am, it's to give a damn for the ones that came before me
G Em7 Cadd9 G
The broken part of a southern heart, it's more than just old glory
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's a state of mind as deep and wide and strong as the Mississippi
Em7 G Cadd9
We sing Amazing Grace and curse the heat
Yeah that's my dixie

It's come on in and have a seat
Yea that's my dixie
G Em7 Cadd9
[Chorus]
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's who I am, it's to give a damn for the ones that came before me
G Em7 Cadd9 G
The broken part of a southern heart, it's more than just old glory
G Em7 Cadd9 G
It's a state of mind as deep and wide and and strong as the Mississippi
Em7 G Cadd9
We sing Amazing Grace and curse the heat
Yea that's my dixie
