Southern star (video)

G F C G

Oh, southern star, how I wish you would shine,

F C G

and show me the way to get home.

G F C G

1. Well, I'm blue-collar branded, and stuck in a mill,

Dm C G

hard work is a way of life for me.

G F C G

Well, I'm too young to live like I'm over the hills,

Dm C G

and too old to be wild and free.

D

My heart is onward bound,

G

I'm rolling with the feeling and I can't slow down,

D G

I need a guiding light shining down to lead me through the night.

+ CHORUS + instrumental = 2x CHORUS

G F C G

2. Oh, hey, my D.J. friend, would you play me one more song,

Dm C G

and let my mind just go and drift away ?

G F C G

Now we all have a dream and a place where we belong,

Dm C G

somewhere we can go and escape.

D

My heart is onward bound,

G

I'm rolling with the feeling and I can't slow down,

D G

I need a guiding light shining down to lead me through the night.

+ CHORUS + instrumental = CHORUS (2x) + CHORUS
