C                        C7
Bus station in Atlanta 6:40 in the evening
        F                     C
She was standing cold and all alone
                              E7
I ask where she was going but she had no way of knowing
D7                                    G7
Cause she was broke and long way from home
C                                   C7
Straight from New York City she was young thin and pretty
F                             C
She belonged in a fashion magazine
       F
I said stay with me till morning
           C               F
I've got a bed to keep you warm in
   C                G7       C
We call it southern hospitality
G7                     F                    C
Lying in the stillness there was no blue or gray
G7                          F                C   G7
Only sweet surrender in the shadows where we la--y
F           G7                   E7                C
She held me close and loved this southern boy just right
        D7            G7             C
And the north won the war again last night
                           C7
Morning's all around me my arms are all around her
      F                              C
She's sleeping Lord and she looks so fine
                                     E7
Between the shades of last night and this mornings daylight
D7                          G7
We found love's Mason Dixon line
C                            C7
And in her arms I found that love isn't north or south
   F                                C
It isn't how you say the things you say
         F               C            F
New York City or Atlanta Cleveland or Savanna
      C             G7         C
She's taken all the boundaries away
G7                     F                    C
Lying in the stillness there was no blue or gray
G7                          F                C   G7
Only sweet surrender in the shadows where we la--y
F           G7                   E7                C
She held me close and loved this southern boy just right
        D7            G7             C
And the north won the war again last night
