Southern Style
Written by Tim James & Rivers Rutherford
Recorded by Darius Rucker
Capo on 1
[Intro]  
D G D D G D G
[Verse]
           D                         G                      D
Sun kissed hair and not much makeup, high-heeled boots that lace up
G                    D             Bm               A
Two first names that came from her grandmas on both sides
          D                                G                 D
She ain't ever read much Faulkner, but she could've been his daughter
         Bm          A               D
She grew up on muddy water, southern style
[Chorus]
         D                              Bm
Southern style, free and easy, southern style, warm and breezy
       G                D                    A
If you met her, man, be-lieve me, you'd want her to stay a while
              D                                Bm
She says, she don't believe in strangers, only  sinners with a savior
           G             A                   D     G
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her southern style
[Verse]
        D                                 G                   D
She's a Friday night light lover, a Billy Graham fan like her mother
              G              D           Bm                A
She wants her daddy and both brothers to walk her down the aisle
          D                           G                D
She likes oysters raw for dinner, Lil Wayne and Lynyrd Skynyrd
          Bm               A                D
Keeps her tan lines in the winter, southern style
[Chorus]
         D                              Bm
Southern style, free and easy, southern style, warm and breezy
       G                D                    A
If you met her, man, be-lieve me, you'd want her to stay a while
              D                                 Bm
She says, she  don't believe in strangers, only sinners with a savior
           G             A                   D
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her southern  style
[Solo]  
G G A Bm A
[Chorus]
         D                              Bm
Southern style, free and easy, southern style, warm and breezy
       G                D/F#                A
If you met her, man, be-live me, you'd want her to stay a while
              D                                Bm
She says, she don't believe in strangers, only sinners with a savior
           G             A                   D
'Cause her mom and daddy raised her southern style
        D                                      Bm
You can love her, you can hate her, but you're never going to change her
       G                     A                      D
If you want her, then you'll take her, --- southern style
[Tag]
         D      G         D       G               D      G
Southern style,  southern  style,  yeah, southern  style
D              G D G D G D
