Back Down South

[Verso 1]
 
She said the mountains will heal me 
F# 
So I'm packing my things, Im going back to Arkansas 
       E 
In the morning I'll be gone 
                                          
I'll fill the gas tank of that old beat down Dodge 

I cant stay too long in this city 
F# 
I was born and raised a small town child 
     E 
Just stuck in the daze of the business 
                   
While looking for kisses

                         E 
I'm going back to what I know 
                          
I'm going back to what I love 
                             F# 
I'm going to back to all them friendly faces 
E 
Places around the town 
                                F# 
Well, I'm headed back down south, uh-huh 
 


[Verso 2]
 
There's cafes that wanna hear me play 
    F# 
They wanna see this guitar make rainbows on the stage 
     E 
I'll rise and make the front page 
                        
Oh, honey, I'll make a name 
 


[Refrão]
 
                         E 
I'm going back to what I know 
                          
I'm going back to what I love 
                             F# 
I'm going to back to all them friendly faces 
E 
Places around the town 
                                F# 
Well, I'm headed back down south, uh-huh 
 


[Ponte]
 
F#   E              
I'ma see my pretty angel 
F#    E                    
And I swear I'll make her mine 
F#       E                
We'll go twirling by the river tonight 
F#        E          
Our first kiss on a warm September night
