Capo 1
Intro: A
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/l/lee_greenwood/dixie_road_crd.html )
[A]I would pick and we would sing to the rhythm of that front porch swing
The [D]moonlight holds the spotlight that we s[A]hared
[A]I found new notes on that old guitar, she believed I could be a star
She [Bm]told me that she wanted to be f[E]air
She said, I[A] love you more than to hold you down, boy you're glory bound
[D]We can't share a world with different dre[A]ams
[A]So I chased mine and she found hers too, but someone else made hers come
true
Now I'm a star, but e[E]very time I [A]sing
Chorus:
My heart goes d[A]rifting down a dusty dixie road
Taking my m[D]ind, back in t[A]ime
[A]L.A. lights burn like hell once you know
You left heaven waitin' d[E]own the dixie ro[A]ad.
[A]Every night I'm in a different place and I'm searching every stranger's
face
[D]Trying to find the girl that's just not t[A]here
[A]She's back there in Montegomery and I'm clear across the country
But whenever I'm al[E]one I go back t[A]here.
Chorus
Chorus: key change: B, E, B, F#, B
