Intro: F

F          Dm    C     F            Dm   C F
There's a southern accent where I come from
     Dm           C         F             Bb                C
The     young 'uns call it country  the yankees call it dumb,
          Dm    C         F            Bb            C
I got my own way of talking but everything gets done,
        Dm   C   Dm Bb                  F
With a southern accent where I come from.

Now that drunk tankin Atlanta is just a motel room to me,
Think I might go work Orlando if them orange groves don't freeze,
Got my own way of working but everything is run,
With a southern accent where I come from.

        Bb                         Dm
        For just a minute there I was dreaming
        Bb                        Dm
        For just a minute it was all so real
        G                            Bb              F
        For just a minute she was standing there with me.

There's a dream I keep having where my momma    comes to        me,
And kneels down over by the window and says a prayer for me,
Got my own way of praying but everything one's begun,
With a southern accent where I come from.
Got my own way of livin but everything is done,
With a southern accent where I come from.
