Dixieland Delight
G D Em C G D Cm G
verse 1: G Rollin' down-a backwoods
Tennessee by-D-way
EmOne arm on the C wheel
Holdin' my G lover
With the D other
EmA sweet, soft Southern C thrill
Worked hard all Em week
Got a little D jingle
On a Em Tennessee Saturday C night
Couldn't feel G better
I'm to-D-gether with my Cm Dixieland DelightG
Chorus: Spend my D dollar
Park in a Em holler 'neath the mountain moon-C-light
Hold her G up tight
Make a little D lovin'
A little turtle-Em-dovin' on a mason-Dixon C night
Fits my Em life
Oh, so C right
My Cm Dixieland De-G-light
A simplified version of the solo after 1st chorus:

E-------------------------------------------3-0-2-3---------------------------
E------------------------0--3--6--5--3--7--5--3-----------then-either:---15,
B-0(pm)-3-(0)-0-------3----------------------------------or do a G-harmonic
G---------------2-------------------------------------------------------------
D-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
A-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
E-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
Verse 2: (same chords as the first)
White-tail buck deer
Munchin' on clover
Red-tail hawk
Sittin' on a limb
Chubby old groundhog
Croakin' bullfrog
Free as a feelin' in the wind
Homegrown country girl
Gonna give me a whirl
on a Tennessee Saturday night
Lucky as a seven
Livin' in heaven
with my Dixieland Delight
(repeat chorus)
a few strange chord progressions follow the 2nd chorus; something like
C, D, Em a couple of times, and I believe the key changes to A (so, of
course, either capo the 2nd fret now, or play all the chords a whole step
higher than they are written here)
a fiddle solo ensues, and the tempo increases and they fade out, singing
verse one again.
