C majorC   A minorAm  FF   C majorC   x2

 C majorC     A minorAm       FF       C majorC
I was up in New York City just the other week
 C majorC        A minorAm              FF      C majorC
You shouldve seen the waitress face when I ordered sweet tea
C majorC     A minorAm            FF     C majorC
She said we dont have that here and I apologized
C majorC    A minorAm              FF       C majorC
I said please forgive me Im in a southern state of mind

C majorC            A minorAm       FF    C majorC
And those girls out in California they dont understand
C majorC     A minorAm                   FF     C majorC
They dont like it when I hold the door or when I say yes maam
C majorC        A minorAm              FF       C majorC
They act like I done something wrong and they give me the evil eye
C majorC      A minorAm         FF        C majorC
I say honey Im sorry Im in a southern state of mind

Chorus:

      FF  C majorC
I could be anywhere
        G+G    A minorAm
In my heart Im always there
       FF            C majorC        G+G
Where they drink sweet tea and they raise you to be polite
       FF   C majorC
No changin who I am
            G+G  A minorAm

Im always walkin round tellin everybody hi
C majorC     A minorAm              FF      C majorC
Just a waving at the strangers in the cars passin by
C majorC        A minorAm         FF          C majorC
Some people may look at me and say that boy just aint right
C majorC          A minorAm      FF          C majorC
Hey yall I aint crazy Im in a southern state of mind

You can see it in the clothes I wear you can hear it when I talk
  C majorC   A minorAm          FF        C majorC
Ball cap, boots and jeans and a little southern drawl
    C majorC     A minorAm      FF    C majorC
I could be up in Ohio or back home in Caroline
C majorC        A minorAm
No matter what state Im in
      FF        C majorC
Im in a southern state of mind
  C majorC  C/BC/B   A minorAm    G+G
