Intro: (4X)
Cadd9, G, Em, Cadd9, G (Harmonica comes in after first measure)

Cadd9                                           G
When I die lord 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 out on those back roads so many times I've gone blind
Cadd9                                                      G
Losing faith in my family had drove me right out 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 (2X)

                   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 (4X, ending midway on Em while starting the next verse)

Play this next verse very slowly:

Em                 Cadd9                                 G
Along those Louisiana byways? lonesome highway?s rollin? on 
          Cadd9                                                G
Won?t you take me where the poor man lives? it?s where I call 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: (2X)
             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

Outro: Cadd9, G, Em, Cadd9 (Repeat until fade)
