[G][C][D][G][C][D]
[G]maybe we'll make [Am7]Texas by the [C]morning[D]
[G]light the bayou with our [Am7]tailights in the [C]night[D]
[Em]800 miles to El [C]Paso from the [G]state line
and we [F]never have the [C]money for the [Am7]flight[D]

I'm in the [G]back seat [Am7]sleepy from the [C]travel[D]
played our [G]hearts out all nigh[Am7]t long in New Or[C]leans[D]
I'm [Em]dirty from the [C]diesel fumes, [G]drinking coffee black
when the [F]first breath of [C]Texas comes in [Am7]clean[D]
{start_of_chorus}
and there's [G]something 'bout the [Am7]southland in the [C]springtime[D]
where the [G]waters flow with [B]confidence and [Em]reason[C]
though I [G]miss her when I'm [Am7]gone
it won't [Bm7]ever be too [C]long
till I'm [Am7]home again to [Bm7]spend my favorite [C]season[D]
when God [Am7]made me born a [Bm7]Yankee he was [C]teasin'[D]
there's no [Am7]place like home and [Bm7]nonE more plea[C]sin'
than the [D]southland in the [G]springtime
{end_of_chorus}
In [G]Georgia nights are [Am7]softer than a [C]whisper[D]
beneath a [G]quilt somebody's [Am7]mother made by [C]hand[D]
and the [Em]farmland like a [C]tapestry passed [G]down through generations
and the [F]peach trees[C] stitched across the [Am7]land[D]

there'll be [G]cider up near [Am7]Helen off the [C]roadside[D]
and boiled [G]peanuts in a [Am7]bag to warm your [C]fingers[D]
and the [Em]smoke from the [C]chimneys meets its [G]maker in the sky
with a [F]song that winter [C]wrote whose melody [C]lingers[D]
{start_of_chorus}
and there's [G]something 'bout the [Am7]southland in the [C]springtime[D]
