Verse 1
(A minor) Virgil Cain (G major) is the name
I (F major) served on the (C major) Danville train (D minor) (G major)
(A minor) Till Stonewall's cavalry (G major) came
And (F major) tore up the (C major) tracks again (D minor)
In (A minor) the winter of 65 (F major)
We were (C major) hungry, just barely (D minor) alive
By (A minor) May the 10th, (F major) Richmond had fell
It's a time (C major) I remem (D minor) ber
Oh, so well (D major)
The night (C major) (G major) they drove (F major) old Dixie down (G major)
And (C major) the bells (F major) were ringing
The night (G major) they drove (F major) old Dixie down (G major) (C major)
(G major) An (A minor) d the (F major) people were singing,
they went
Na (C major) -na (G major) (A minor) -na -na -na -na -na
Na (E minor) -na -na -na -na (F major) -na -na -na
Back (A minor) with my wife in Tennessee, (G major)
one (C major) (F major) day she called (E minor) (C major) to me (D minor) (G major) (A minor)
Virgil, quick (G major) come see,

(D minor) I (G major) (D minor) (A minor) don't mind
them chopping (F major) wood,
and I don't care (C major) if the (D minor) money's no good
You take (A minor) what you need,
and you (F major) leave the rest
But they should (C major) never have
taken (D minor) the very best (D major)
The (G major) night (C major) they drove (F major) old Dixie down (G major)
(C major) An (G major) (A minor) d the (F major) bells were ringing

Na, (C major) (G major) na, na, (A minor) na, na, na, na
Na, (E minor) na, na, na, na, (F major) na, na
Like (A minor) my father before me (G major)
I'm (F major) a -workin' there (D minor)
Like (A minor) my brother above (G major) me
I (A minor) took (F major) a re (C major) bel's stand (D minor)
Just (A minor) 18, proud (F major) and brave
But a (C major) Yankee laid him in (D minor) his grave
I (C major) swear by the (A minor) mud (C major) below (F major) my feet
I can't (C major) raise a cane back up (D minor)
when he's in defeat (D major)
The (D minor) (C major) night they drove (F major) old Dixie down
