I Believe The South Is Going To Rise Again chords by Tanya Tucker

Chords with lyrics

C majorC            FF
Mama never had a flower garden

   G7G7                C majorC
Cause cotton grew right up to our front door

            FF
Daddy never went on a vacation

  G7G7              C majorC
He died a tired old man at forty-four


                     FF
Our neighbors in the big house called us redneck

   G7G7               C majorC
Cause we lived in a poor sharecropper shack

                      FF
The Jackson's down the road were poor like we were

G7G7                  C majorC
But our skin was white and their was black

              G minorGm     C majorC
But I believe the south is gonna rise again

  FF       E7E7          A minorAm
But not the way we thought it would back then

FF      G7G7      A minorAm
I mean everybody hand in hand

FF  C majorC         G7G7     C majorC
I believe the south is gonna rise again


               FF
I see wooded parks and big skyscrapers

   G7G7               C majorC
Where dirty rundown shack stood once before

                 FF
I see sons and daughter and sharecroppers

G7G7               C majorC
But they're not picking cotton anymore

                FF
But more important I see human kindness

   G7G7             C majorC
As we forget the bad and keep the good

                    FF
A augmentedA brand new breeze is blowing cross the southland

G7G7                  C majorC
And I see a brand new kind of brotherhood


              G minorGm     C majorC
But I believe the south is gonna rise again

  FF       E7E7          A minorAm
But not the way we thought it would back then

FF      G7G7      A minorAm
I mean everybody hand in hand

FF  C majorC         G7G7     C majorC
