[Intro]
C  Am  F  C
C  Am  F  C
[Verse 1]
C           Am            F              C
I was up in New York City just the other week
C                      Am                    F             C
You should've seen the waitress' face when I ordered sweet tea
C                 Am                 F      C
She said we don't have that here and I apologized
C      Am                          F                 C
I said please forgive me, I'm in a southern state of mind
[Verse 2]
C                      Am         F               C
And those girls out in California they don't understand
C                         Am                      F       C
They don't like it when I hold the door or when I say yes ma'am
C                    Am                       F                C
They act like I done something wrong and they give me the evil eye
C     Am                         F                 C
I say honey, I'm sorry, I'm in a southern state of mind
[Chorus]
           F  C
I could be anywhere
                G      Am
In my heart I'm always there
           F                        C               G
Where they drink sweet tea and they raise you to be polite
            F     C
No changin' who I am
                    G      Am
That's the way I've always been
               F         C
No matter what state I'm in
         G                 C
I'm in a southern state of mind
[Interlude]
C  Am  F  C
[Verse  3]
C          Am                     F         C
I'm always walkin' 'round tellin' everybody hi
C      Am                             F            C
Just a-wavin' at the strangers in the cars passin' by
C               Am                 F                   C
Some people may look at me and say that boy just ain't right
C                  Am              F                 C
Hey y'all, I ain't crazy, I'm in a southern state of mind
[Chorus]
           F  C
I could be anywhere
                G      Am
In my heart I'm always there
          F                        C                       G
Where you know everybody and if ya don't than you're still polite
            F     C
No changin' who I am
                    G      Am
That's the way I've always been
               F         C
No matter what state I'm in
         G                 C
I'm in a southern state of mind
[Interlude]
C  Am  F  C
[Verse 4]
C                     Am                     F              C
You can see it in the clothes I wear you can hear it when I talk
C         Am                    F               C
Ball cap, boots and jeans and a little southern drawl
C                Am           F       C
I could be up in Ohio or back home in Caroline
C              Am
No matter what state I'm in
         F                 C
I'm in a southern state of mind
C     C/B         Am        G
Don't matter what state I'm in 
         F                 C
I'm in a southern state of mind
[Outro]
C  Am  F  C
