Verse
           G(1)    Bm#5       Csus2    Dsus4
She had a dead-end job at the National Bank
      G(1)     Bm#5        Csus2  Dsus4
And a deadbeat husband who always drank
           G(1)        Bm#5             Csus2  Dsus4
So when he didn't come home she had the gin to thank
        Em7   Dadd4/F# G    Cadd9                     (The beats for this line are tricky.
For the tears   in     her  eyes          <-------     The Em7 gets 3 beats, the Dadd4/F# gets 2, and
   Em7         Dadd4/F#     G        A                 the G gets 2, and the Cadd9 gets 9. Just listen
So Dixie packed up and said her goodbyes             to the song if you have trouble. Its the same in
                                                       the 2nd verse too)
Chorus
             G  Cadd9   D
And she went driving so far away nobody's gonna find her
G Cadd9     D
Flying just fast enough, to leave it all behind her
Em7              Dadd4/F#                 G            Cadd9
But she didn't know till she hit the road, deep in her soul
Am
She's got the fire and the fight of a gypsy
C                               D
Ain't nothing stronger than the heart of Dixie

G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4/A# (the heart of Dixie)
G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4

Verse 2
       G(1)  Bm#5            Csus2       Dsus4
It's a funny thing when your world falls down
           G(1)           Bm#5           Csus2 Dsus4
It's got a way of showing you what you're all about
    G(1)            Bm#5   Csus2   Dsus4
Now Dixie's got her wheels pointed south
              Em7   Dadd4/F# G  Cadd9
And she ain't never   look-ing  back
Em7    Dadd4/F#     G         A
Nobody knew she was brave like that

Chorus

G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4/A# (the heart of Dixie)
Em7(1) G(2) Bm#5 Dsus4 *let ring*

Bridge
     G(1)       Bm#5      Csus2     Dsus4
Yeah Dixie woke up to the truth one day
            G(1)  Bm#5               Csus2    Dsus4
Grabbed her cheap sunglasses and her lipstick case

Chorus

G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4 (the heart of Dixie)
G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4
O-o-ooh
G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4 (the heart of Dixie)
                      O-o-oh
G(1) Bm#5 Csus2 Bm#5 Dsus4 G
