[Verse 1]
He had a [F]Martin I had a Fender, we were [Bb]thirteen years of age
[F]Out back in the tool shed, we were [C]searchin' for the same
Every[F]day all through that summer, we'd [Bb]rock n roll and rage
All the [F]neighbors kept complainin', but it [C]never slowed us [F]down.
|[Chorus]
|We sang [Bb]Three Verses of Dixie, Can't [F]Get No Satisfaction[Bb]
|Rainy Women Numbers [F]12 and 3[C]5

Verse 2:
[F]Moved out to California, [Bb]shootin' for the stars
The [F]biggest thing since Elvis, [C]nothin' could go wrong
But they [F]took us for all our money, and [Bb]everything else we owned
So we [F]got ourselves some whiskey, and we [C]drank it all night [F]long.
|[Chorus 2]
|We sang [Bb]Three Verses of Dixie, Can't [F]Get No Satisfaction[Bb]
|Rainy Women, and A [F]Bad Moon On The [C]Rise

Bridge:
Oh we [D]never quite got [Bb]over it, we [F]when out separate [C]ways[D]
He traded in his [Bb]music for cocaine [F]nights, and reckless [C]days
Still I [Bb]knew he always [F]wanted, to make one last [C]journey [Bb]home.
Verse 3:
Near a [F]small white church in the valley, [Bb]beneath a wooden bridge[F]
Patiently we waited, on that [C]cold Alabama rain
Then the [F]preacher started preachin', about [Bb]lives and about our times
The [F]sun was slowly sinkin', as we [C]laid his body [F]down.
|[Chorus 3]
|We sang [Bb]Three Verses of Dixie, What a [F]Friend We Have In Jesus[Bb]
|Walkin' In The Garden, and The [F]Old Rugged [C]Cross
