Chords with lyrics
BB F#F#
I was dyin in that small town, dreamed of headin southbound
Ab/G# E MajorE
So I hitched down I-65
BB F#F#
I climbed into her trans am, an hour below of Burmingham
Ab/G# E MajorE
She was headin home and I was there for the ride
BB F#F#
Started talkin nonsense an' she was laughin at my accent
Ab/G#
-Wound up on the Alabama shore
BB F#F#
There was magic in the night air an' a gulf breeze in her blonde hair
Ab/G#
That's what my soul's searchin for
Chorus:
BB F#F#
Southern moonlight, southern daughter
BB E5E5
She led me down to the water
BB F#F#
As we lay on that cool, white sand
E MajorE BB
I was born again in Dixieland
Guitar:
BB G#G# F#F# E MajorE F#F# G#G# BB
BB F#F#
We drank from a mason jar, underneath a blanket of stars
Ab/G# E MajorE
And I said 'do you believe this is meant-to-be? '
BB
An' she told me 'well I believe the front porch swings
F#F#
-The song that the cricket sings-
Ab/G#
And I believe you belong down here with me
Chorus:
BB F#F#
Southern moonlight, southern daughter
BB E5E5
She led me down to the water
BB F#F#
As we lay on that cool, white sand
E MajorE BB
I was born again in Dixieland
C# minorC#m G# minorG#m
We watched the twilight fade, there by the ocean waves
E MajorE F#F#
And it made me feel at home
C# minorC#m D#M
An' I knew I'd found my place, lost in her embrace
E MajorE F#sus4F#sus4 F#F#
I was baptized in her arms -
Chorus:
BB F#F#
Southern moonlight, southern daughter
BB E5E5
She led me down to the water
BB F#F#
As we lay on that cool, white sand
E MajorE
I was born again
Chorus:
BB F#F#
Southern moonlight, southern daughter

She led me down to the water
