(Harmonica comes in on Em after first measure)
 
Cadd9                                            G
When I die lord oh won’t you put my soul up on a train
          Cadd9                                      G
Won’t you send it Southbound give it a cool bluesman name
          Cadd9                                            G
I’ve been lost on those back roads so many times I've gone blind
Cadd9                                                 G
Losing faith in my family had driven me outta my damn mind
 
[Chorus]
             Em          Cadd9                    G
But on the South side of heaven won’t you take me home
                Em                Cadd9                        G
Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord it's gettin’ cold
 
[Short Break]
Cadd9  G  Em  Cadd9  G  x2
 
                   Cadd9                                               G
Well I've been a desperado in west Texas for so long lord, I need a change
       Cadd9                                                  G
And for ten long years, this old place ain’t seen a drop of rain
         Cadd9                                       G
And that wind blows everyday Lord, oh like a desert snow
      Cadd9                                               G
Like a lost bound train, running on cocaine and out of control
 
[Chorus]
           Em            Cadd9                      G
But on the South side of heaven won’t you take me home
                Em                Cadd9                       G
Cause I've been broke down for so long and Lord it's gettin’ cold
 
[Long Break]
Cadd9  G  Em  Cadd9  G  x4
(end midway on Em while starting the next verse)
 
Play this next verse very slowly:
 
Em                 Cadd9                              G
Along those Louisiana byways… lonesome highways roll on 
          Cadd9                                                  G
Won’t you take me where the poor man lives… it’s where I call my home
    Cadd9                                                   G
And can't you see that a breeze… is nothin’ but a change in pace
Cadd9                                                       G
Money can’t buy my soul… ‘cause it comes from a hard earned place
 
{Kick back up to the standard tempo for the rest of the song:}
 
[Chorus] (x2)
            Em           Cadd9                    G
But on the South side of heaven won’t you take me home
                Em          Cadd9                      G
Cause I've been gone for so long and Lord it's gettin’ cold
 
[Outro]
| Cadd9   | G       | Em  Cadd9 | G       |
(Repeat until fade)
