Southern Girl Chords & Lyrics - Amos Lee

Capo on second fret.

Most add9's are optional but I think they sound best

[E]Farew[Aadd9]ell my sweet [E] [Aadd9]
Well the [E]time that was coming [Aadd9]
The road has begun to move [C#m]beneath my [Badd9]feet
(Same)
Good things come to an end
Well I hope through the pain
The heartache and strain we can still remain friends

Something about a [Aadd9]southern [E]girl
[C#m]Make me feel [Badd9]right
In a[Aadd9] Mississippi [E]morning
She's an [Aadd9]angel in [Badd9]flight
In a [Aadd9]blink of an [E]eye
She'll be [C#m]out of your [Badd9]sight
[Aadd9]Something ab[E]out a [Badd9]southern [E]girl [Aadd9] [E] [Aadd9]

(Same as first verse)
You're a soft melody
Well I swear that I heard
From a lost mockingbird stuck up in a tree
We got a lot going on
Even though I'm not here
Please don't shed any tears for me day when I'm gone

(Same as first Chorus)
Something about a southern girl
Make me feel right
In a Mississippi morning
She's an angel in flight
In a blink of an eye
She'll be out of your sight
[Aadd9]Something a[E]bout a [Badd9]southern [D]girl

I never meant to leave you l[A]onely
It was o[E]nly in your [D]mind
[Bm7]Girl, I never meant to leave you l[Aadd9]onely
It was [C#7]only a matter of time

Something about a [Badd9]southern [F#]girl
[D#m]Make me feel [C#add9]right
In a [Badd9]Mississippi m[F#]orning
She's an [Badd9]angel in [C#add9]flight
In a [Badd9]blink of an [F#]eye
She'll be [D#m]out of your [C#add9]sight
[Badd9]Something ab[F#]out a [C#add9]southern
[Badd9]Something ab[F#]out a [C#add9]southern [F#]girl [Badd9] [F#] [Badd9]
