David Allan Coe - I Still Sing The Old Songs

D              G                 D
Grandpa I been thinkin’ bout you lately 
D                  G                   A
Wonderin’ if you’d found your peace of mind
  D              G                  D         
I guess you’d be proud to know your grandsons’ 
G                  E7          A
Never crossed that Mason Dixon Line.

Chorus:
    G                A                  D
And I Still Sing The Old Songs That you taught me
    G               A             D
And I still pray to Jesus now and then
    G               A                 D
And just like you I wish that he will save me
   G               E7              A
To see the day the South will rise again.

D              G               D
Daddy wore his purple heart so proudly
D             G             A
Long before I turned into a man
D               G                 D
Buried with our flag acrossed his casket
G               E7            A
I was still too young to understand.

Chorus:

D               G                 D
Momma spent her last years in the garden
D               G               A
While I took my turn behind the gun
D                G                D
Lord I’d give my life to find the freedom
G                E7                A
Lost within the old songs that you sung.

Chorus:
