Chorus
G B7 C G
If you ever get south of Cincinnati
down where the dogwood trees grow
G B7 C GIf you ever get south of the Mason Dixon
C D7 G D7to the home you left so long ago
If you ever get south of the Ohio River
C D7 G D7down where Dixieland begins
G B7 C GIf you ever get south of Cincinnati
IŽll be yours again.
G C G
She pulled the letter from the pages of her Bible
And a rose pressed inside the Book of Luke
G C GFor fourteen years sheŽd write each day but keep it hidden
D7 GRefused to even speak his name, but still she wrote:
Chorus
If you ever.....
[INSTRUMENTAL, SAME AS CHORUS]
At a cold gray apartment in Chicago
D7 GA cigarette drowns inside a glass of gin
C GHe lies there drunk but it donŽt matter drunk or sober
HeŽll never read the words that pride wonŽt let her send
If you ever.....
Then IŽll be yours again
[INSTRUMENTAL, SAME AS CHORUS (FADING)]
