There's [F]
[Dm] a [E] southern [F] accent [Dm] where [C] I [F] come from
[Dm] The youngins [C] call [F] it country, the Yankees [Bb] call [C] it dumb
I got [Dm] my own [C] way [F] of talking, [Bb] but everything [C] is done
[F] With [Dm] a [C] southern
[Bb] accent where I come from
[F]
I [Dm] got a drunk [G] tank in [F] Atlanta, [Dm] just a [G] motel [F] room to me
I [Dm] think I might [G] go to [F] Orlando if the [Bb] morning scrolls [C] don't freeze
I [Dm] got my own [C] way [F] of working, but [Bb] everything [C] is wrong
[F] [Dm] With a [C] southern [Bb] accent where I come from
[F]
For [Bb] just a minute there, [F] I [Dm] was dreaming
[Bb] For just a minute, [Dm] it was all surreal
[C] [G] For just a minute, she [C] was standing [F] there [Bb] with me
[F]
And as [Dm] a dream, [E] I [F] keep living
Where [Dm] my mama [G]
[F] comes to me
[Dm] And kneels [C] down [G] over [F] by the window
And [Bb] says a prayer [C] for me
[F] I [Dm] got my [C] own way [F] of praying
And [Bb] everyone's [C] begun
[F] With [Dm] a [C] southern [Bb] accent where I come from
[F]
I [Dm] got [C]
[F] [Dm] [C]
[F] [Dm] [G] [C] [F]
[Bb]
[C] [Dm] [C] [F]
[Dm] [F]
[Dm] my own [C] way [F] of living
And [Bb] everything [C] is done
[F] [Dm] With a [C] southern
[Bb] accent where I come from
