[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
