CAPO: 3rd Fret
INTRO: [C] [G] [Am] [G] [F] (2x)
I [C]heard he was [G]scraping [Am]Dixie [G] [F]
Looking for a job [C]
Looking [G]for some [Am]work to [G]get him [F]by
Steering [C]clear of [G]all the [Am]jails [G]
But he was [F]skinny as a rail
And his [C]face would [G]hardly [Am]move from [G]day to [F]day
And his [C]face would [G]hardly [Am]move from [G]day to [F]day
[CHORUS]
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me [G]
Don't you [F]set your mouth on me
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth and [Am]jump salty [G]as the [F]sea
Even [C]though she [G]was the [Am]one, [G]even [F]so, I'll overcome
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me like [G]I be[F]long
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me like [G]I be[F]long
He [C]learned to [G]cook short [Am]order [G]
He was a [F]pour man in a bar
And a [C]bubble [G]dancer, '[Am]til his [G]face got [F]steamed
And I [C]know that [G]he was [Am]bugged
[G]Dishing [F]out them slops and slugs
He [C]said that [G]grease got [Am]all up [G]in his [F]dreams
He [C]said that [G]grease got [Am]all up [G]in his [F]dreams
INSTRUMENTAL: [C] [G] [Am] [G] [F] (5x)
He said [C]he'd be [G]scraping [Am]Dixie [G]
Maybe [F]Carolina way
[C]Looking [G]for some [Am]cash to [G]pass him [F]through
Oh well, [C]what you [G]gonna [Am]do [G]
We all [F]have to line the flue
But I'll [C]fight un[G]til they [Am]put that [G]tree suit [F]on
I'll be [C]fighting '[G]til they [Am]put that [G]tree suit [F]on
[BRIDGE]
A VF[Am]W f[G]rom some[C]where
With the [G6]thousand yard [Am]stare [F]
The VA kept him hanging on a [G]line
His disa[C]bili[G]ty was [Am]pending
And I'd [G]get these [F]scribes that he was sending
He'll be [C]scraping [G]by 'til the [Am]weather [G]warms this [F]way
Scraping [C]Dixi[G]e 'til the [Am]weather [G]warms this [F]way
[CHORUS]
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me [G]
Don't you [F]set your mouth on me
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me like [G]I be[F]long
Even [C]though she [G]was the [Am]one, [G]even [F]so, I'll overcome
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me like [G]I be[F]long
Don't you [C]set your [G]mouth on [Am]me like [G]I be[F]long
