D              Fdim B7                      E7/9 
Southern nights        have you ever felt a Southern night  
G7M        G6           A7/9/13          A7 
Free as a breeze not to mention the trees 
A4/7         F#m            Bm7           Em7  G/B  A4/7  A7/13- 
Whistling tunes that you know and love so. 
D              Fdim B7                      E7/9 
Southern nights       just as good even when closed your eyes 
   G7M  G6   A7/9/13     A7 
I apologize 
  A4/7      F#m               Bm7        Em7            A7 
to  any  one who can truly say he has found a better way,  
     D  
Hey hey. 
D              Fdim B7                        E7/9 
Southern skies         have you ever noticed Southern skies? 
G7M           G6         A7/9/13           A7 
It's precious beauty lies just beyond the eye 
         F#m              Bm7            Em7   G/B  A4/7       A7/13- 
It goes running thru your soul like the stories of   old. 
D      Fdim B7                             E7/9 
Old man        he and his dog they walk the old land 
G7M           G6   A7/9/13      A7 
Ev'ry flower touches his cold hand 
A4/7      F#m          Bm7         Em7     A7       D6 
 As he slowly walked by, weeping willows cry for joy, joy. 
D            Fdim   B7                                                                   
Feel so good          feel so good it's fright'ning 
E7/9        Fdim  E7/9 
Wish I could           stop this world from fighting 
G7M        G6              A7/9/13-        A7 
La dah dah dahhh dahhhh dot dah dah dah dahhh dahhh 
  A4/7            F#m             Bm7     Em7   A7  A4/7 
Dot dah dah dot dahhh  dah dot dahhhh 
D        Fdim B7                        E7/9  
Mysteries       like this and many other in the trees 
G7M           G6     A7         A4/7          D 
Blow in the night        in the Southern skies
