Down Home
recorded by Alabama
written by
Rick Bowles and Josh Leo
 
G D7
Just off of the beaten path
C D7
A little dot on a state road map
C D7 G
That's where I was born and where I'll die
D7
Things move at a slower pace
C D7
Nobody's in a rat race
C D7 G
And these days that's a special way to fly

C G C D7
Down Home where they know you by name and treat you like family
C G C D7
Down Home a man's good word and a handshake are all you need
C Em C A7
Folks know if they're falling on hard times they can fall back on
G C D7 G
Those of us raised up Down Home

D7
In the corner of a hardware store
C D7
Gathered round a checker board
C D7 G
Old men telling lies and crowning kings
D7
Kids driving round the old town square
C D7
Tops rolled down in the cool night air
C D7 G
Go and see what's shaking at the Dairy Queen

C D7 G C
When I was a boy I couldn't wait to leave this place
D7 C D7
But now I wanna see my children raised
C G C G
Down Home Down Home
C Em C A7
Folks know if they're falling on hard times they can fall back on
G C D7 G
Those of us raised up Down Home

Repeat #2
