Down Home
By Alabama
Date: December 11, 2002
G D
Just off of the beaten path
C D
A little dot on a state road map
C D G
That's where I was born & where I'll die
G D
Things move at a slower pace
C D
Nobody's in a rat race
C D G
And these days that's a special way to fly
Chorus
C G C D
Down Home where they know you by name and treat you like family
C G C D
Down Home a man's good word & a handshake are all you need
C Em C A
Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on
G C D G
Those of us raised up Down Home
G D
In the corner of a hardware store
C D
Gathered round a checker board
C D G
Old men telling lies & crowning kings
G D
Kids drivin round the old town square
C D
Tops rolled down in the cool nite air
C D G
Go & see what's shakin at the Dairy Queen
Chorus
C D G C
When I was a boy I couldn't wait to leave this place
D C D
But now I wanna see my children raised
C G C D
Down Home
C G C D
Down Home
C Em C A
Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on
G C D G
Those of us raised up Down Home
C D
Where they know you by name and treat you like family
C G C D
Down Home a man's good word & a handshake are all you need
C Em C A
Folks know if they're fallin on hard times they can fall back on
G C D G
Those of us raised up Down Home
C G C D
Down Home
