Southern Man

by Neil Young

Refrain:
    Am                 Cmaj7
    Southern man better     keep your head
    F                     D7
    Don't forget what your  Good Book says
    Am                   Cmaj7
    Southern change gonna     come at last
    F                   D7
    Now your crosses are  burning fast
    Am          F  Dm
    Southern man

Am              F      Dm
I saw cotton and I saw black
Am                     F       Dm
Tall white mansions and little shacks
Am                        F         Dm
Southern man when will you pay them back?
E
I heard screamin' and bullwhips crackin'

How long, how long?  Ahhh...

    [REFRAIN]

Lillie Bell your hair is golden brown
I've seen your black man comin' 'round
Swear by God I'm gonna cut him down
I heard screamin' and bullwhips crackin'
How long, how long?  Ahhh...
