        STILL A SOUTHERN MAN
          WILL HOGE

NOTE:
   In the INTRO and VERSES when going
   from the C to the G chord the G chord
   is really a Cmaj9/G (noted at bottom of tab).
   I stated it as G chord to keep the tab
   from looking cluttered.

INTRO:
   *
Am C G  Am C D
Am C G  Am C D


VERSE:
 Am          C
There's a flag flying overhead
 G  Am              C  D
And I used to think it meant one thing

Am             C    G
But now I've grown up and seen the world
    Am            C D
And I know what it really means

Am           C      G
I wanted it to be the symbol of a boy
   Am              C D
Who wasn't scared to take a stand

Am             C       G
But now I know it's just a hammer driving nails
   Am            C D
In a coffin of a long dead land

E                 E
Oh, and I can't take it anymor-ore


CHORUS:
C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man

C          G
I don't want your stars and bars
     Am        F
And your blood on my damn hands

 C      G
I'm looking away now Dixie
       Am          F
'Cause I've seen all that I can stand

C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man


INSTRUMENTAL:
Am C G  Am C D


VERSE:
Am        C     G
The line really ain't that thin
Am          C  D
Between heritage and hate

Am         C     G
One is saying yes ma'am and thank you
  Am               C  D
And making sure you pull your own weight

  Am
The others what happens
     C      G
When you try to hold down
  Am             C  D
Anybody that ain't just like you

     Am
You can call it what you want
      C     G
But it's a God damn shame
     Am                C  D
And I'm glad that I can finally see the truth

E                E
Oh, I can finally see the truth


CHORUS:
C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man

C          G
I don't want your stars and bars
     Am        F
And your blood on my damn hands

 C      G
I'm looking away now Dixie
       Am          F
'Cause I've seen all that I can stand

C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man


INSTRUMENTAL/SOLO:
Am G F
Am G F
Am G F
Am G F


BREAK:
 E
You say "Where's your Rebel pride boy?"
 E
"I'm sorry mister, it's all gone"
 E
That flag ain't never lead to one thing good
 E
Tear it down
E
I want to tear it down


INSTRUMENTAL:
Am C G   Am C D


Am    G       Am F
But I'm still a southern man


CHORUS:
 C      G
I'm looking away now Dixie
       Am          F
'Cause I've seen all that I can stand

C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man

C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man

C      G       Am  F
 But I'm still a southern man

 C      G
I'm looking away now Dixie
       Am       F
'Cause I've seen all I can stand
