Intro: e|------------------------------| B|------------------------------| G|------------------------------| D|---------------2--------------| A|------2h4/5-------0-----------| E|------------------------------| There’s a southern accent - where I come from The young’uns call it country - the yankees call it dumb I got my own way of talking - but everything gets done With a southern accent - where I come from Now that drunk tank in Atlanta - is just a motel room to me Think I might go work Orlando - if them orange groves don’t freeze Got my own way of working - but everything is run With a southern accent - where I come from. For just a minute there I was dreaming For just a minute it was all so real A. For just a minute she was standingAthere - with me. There’s a dream I keep having - where my momma comes to me And kneels down over by the window - and says a prayer for me Got my own way of praying - but everything one’s begun With a southern accent - where I come from. Got my own way of living - but everything is done With a southern accent - where I come from.
