CHORDS: Dolly Parton – Highway Headin South Chords on Piano & Ukulele

[Intro]
G A D  G A D


[Chorus]
D
On a highway
headed south
             G
somewhere to Dixie
          D
Where the cotton
blooms in the
spring
and the snow
      A
don't fly
          D
I'm gonna rest
these
chillin' bones in
the southern
G
sunshine
    D
And live where the
 weather's
A            G  D
warm until I die

[Verse 1]
D             G
North Dakota, you
 got
   D
my better years
Montana, you got
 five
            A
years of my life
    D
But your subzero
wind will
      G
never touch me
again
  D
A Southern girl
 can't
A
live on snow
    G  D
and ice


[Chorus]
D
On a highway
headed
south
             G
somewhere to Dixie
          D
Where the cotton
blooms in the
spring and the
 snow
      A
don't fly
          D
I'm gonna rest
these
chillin' bones
in the southern
G
sunshine
    D
And live where the
 weather's
A            G D
warm until I die


[Verse 2]
D
When I cross the
      G
Dixie line,
            D
I'll throw away my
 coat
And my goose down
underwear
             A
will have to go
     D
I'll never live
again where
            G
the weather chills
 you to the bone
    D
I'm tired of
living
A           G D
like an Eskimo


[Chorus]
D
On a highway headed
south
             G
somewhere to Dixie
          D
Where the cotton
blooms
in the spring and
               A
the snow don't fly
          D
I'm gonna rest
these
chillin' bones
 in
the southern
G
sunshine
    D
And live where the
 weather's
A            D
warm until I die


[Out-Chorus]
     Eb
On a highway
 headed
south
             Ab
somewhere to Dixie
          Eb
Where the cotton
blooms
in the spring and
               Bb
the snow don't fly
          Eb
I'm gonna rest
these
weary bones in
the southern
Ab
sunshine
    Eb
And live where
 the
 weather's
Bb           Eb
warm until I die
On a highway
headed
 south
             Ab
somewhere to Dixie
          Eb
Where the cotton
 blooms
in the spring
and the snow
      Bb
don't fly
      Eb
Gonna rest these
 chillin'
 bones in the
         Ab
southern sunshine..
