_ [E] _ _ _ _ _ [Bb] Hi, I'm Rebecca and I am Megan.
Together, we are Larkin Poe.
We were born in Knoxville, Tennessee,
and our folks raised us in northern Georgia.
So we grew up loving a lot of roots American music.
And I wanted to write a song for our new record
that really name checked and celebrated
a lot of the movers and the shakers
of the Southern states that have really inspired us
to make music of our own.
This is called Back Down South. _
