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

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#

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

Finally death came callin'

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 G G#od has a place in Heaven
A# A# G# G# D# D#
For a small town Southern man

(Repeat Chorus)
