INTRO:
G D C G
1ST VERSE:
G D C
I received a letter
G D C
Like so many others
C G
Mama said, "How's life in the city?
C G
My your sister's grown
Am C G C G
And you've just missed those awful Dixie storms
Am C D Dsus4 D
Thank God they've passed, those awful Dixie storms"
2ND VERSE:
G D C
I left so long ago
G D C
I've forgotten just what for
C G
Except when a big city beckons
C G
You have no choice but to go
Am C G C G
And here, there are no Dixie storms
Am C G
Thank God, there are no Dixie storms
BRIDGE:
Em D G
And the smoke on the street
Em D A Am
Makes me wonder why I stay away
C G
From those gentle Dixie storms
BREAK:
(G) D C / G D C
C G C G
Am C
G D C / G D C
3RD VERSE:
G D C
When I was younger
G D C
How I would wonder
C G
What made the sweet Georgia rain
C G
Make me feel so warm
Am C G C G
And how God made a Dixie storm
Am C G G
And how I loved those Dixie storms
BRIDGE:
D Em D G G
And the rumble in the sky
D Em D A
Brings a shudder to my soul
Am C G
Oh, how I loved those Dixie storms
Am C G / Am G
