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