Another Side
by Sawyer Brown from Six Days On The Road

I saw them do this song in concert and just loved it. I hope you do to.

Intro G C9 G C9

Em C9 G
We came up from Sheffield and they put us on the line
D G C9 D
You could smell the powder burning and man it hurt my eyes
Em
They knew them boys were tired and weak
C9 G
We were fresh and we were strong
D G C9 D
We could not wait to blast away and make our presence known
C9 G C9 G
Every time I took my aim and got one in my sight
Em C9 D
In my heart I knew the way and this way was not right

Chorus
C9 G D G
I guess my daddy would be proud but my mama she's ashamed
C9 G D
And I know deep down we need a change
C9 G
Them Northern boys are friends of mine
D G
But I've got my Southern pride
Em C D
Im standing here a fightin wishin there was another side

Fill in G C9

Em
We burned each others crops and fields
C9 G
And took the very best
D G C9 D
We fought our way back and forth and they put us to the test
Em
I know that some things were wrong
C9 G
But what gave them the right
D G C9 D
To point their righteous fingers and expect us not to fight
C9 G C9 G
We all cried on the night they burned Atlanta down
Em C9 D
How much more can we take and still stand our ground

Chorus
C9 G D G
I guess my daddy would be proud but my mama she's ashamed
C9 G D
And I know deep down we need a change
C9 G
Them colored boys are friends of mine
D G
But I've got my Southern pride
Em C D
I'm standing here a fightin wishin there was another side

Fill in G C9 G C9

Em
In four years the smoke had cleared
C9 G
And I went back to the farm
D G C9 D
Little brother met me at the bridge and he held out his arms
Em C9 G
He was thin and weak and wounded and dressed in Yankee blue
D G C9 D
Well I cried and I held him and together we both knew
C9 G C9 G
If it could be done over there would be a better way
Em C9 D
Still one family and one nation oh but what a price we pay

Chorus
C9 G D G
I guess my daddy would be proud but my mama she's ashamed
C9 G D
And I know deep down we need a change
C9 G
Now some of them boys were friends of mine
D G
But dang this Southern pride
Em C D G
I'm standing here a cryin wishin there was another side
C9 G
I'm wishin there was another side
C9 G
Wishin there was another side

Outro: C9 G C9 G
