Intro-  D D G G D D G G D D G G D D A A G G D D 


G G D D

Born the middle son of a farmer
A A D D
And a small town Southern man
G G D D
Like his daddy's daddy before him
A A

Brought up workin' on the land
G G D D
Fell in love with a small town woman
A A D D
And they married up and settled down
G G D D
Natural way of life if you're lucky
A A G G D D
For a small town Southern man
G G D D
First there came four pretty daughters
A A D D
For this small town Southern man
G G D D
Then a few years later came another
A A
A A boy, he wasn't planned
G G D D
Seven people livin' all together
A A D D
In a house built with his own hands
G G D D
Little words with love and understandin'
A A G G D D
From a small town Southern man

Chorus:
G G D D
And he bowed his head to Jesus
G G D D
And he stood for Uncle Sam
G G D D
And he only loved one woman
A A
He) was always proud of what he had
G G D D
He said his greatest contribution
G G D D
Is the ones you leave behind
G G D D
Raised on the ways and gentle kindness
A A G G D D
Of a small town Southern man
G G D D A A G G D D

G G D D
Callous hands told the story
A A D D
For this small town Southern man
G G D D
He gave it all to keep it all together
A A
And keep his family on his land
G G D D
Like his daddy, years wore out his body
A A D D
Made it hard just to walk and stand
G G
You can break the back
D D
But you can't break the spirit
A A G G D D
Of a small town Southern man

Repeat Chorus) G G D D G G D D G G D D A A G G D D
G G D D
Finally death came callin'
A A D D
For this small town Southern man
G G D D
He said it's alright 'cause I see angels
A A
And they got me by the hand
G G D D
Don't you cry, and don't you worry
A A D D
I'm blessed, and I know I am
G G D D
'Cause God has a place in Heaven
A A G G D D
For a small town Southern man

(Repeat Chorus)

G G D D
Raised on the ways and gentle kindness
A A G G D D
Of a small town Southern man

ENDING G G D D A A G G D D
