Dixie Chicken
Writer: Lowell George & Martin Kibbee
Intro
F# --> G D
I've seen the bright lights of Memphis and the Commodore Hotel
and underneath a street lamp I met a southern belle
Bb B C G D
And she took me to the river and there she cast her spell
and underneath the moonlight she sang this song so well
CHORUS
Bb B G D
If you'll be my Dixie Chicken, I''ll be your Tennessee Lamb
G C G
And we can walk together down in Dixieland
Bb B G C G
Down in Dixieland
VAMP
G C G
D Dsus
Well, we hit all the hot spots, my money flowed like wine
And that low down southern whiskey, it began to fog my mind
And I don't remember church bells or the money I put down
Or the white picket fence and boardwalk or the House at the edge of town
CHORUS
Well, it's been a year since she went away,
Yes that guitar player should could play
She always like to sing along, always handy with a song
Then one night in lobby of the Commodore Hotel I chanced to meet a bartender who said he knew her well
And as he handed me a drink he began to hum a song and all the boys there at the bar began to sing along
