Johnny Cash - Southern Comfort: Guitar Chords

C#
I've been a thrill seeking rambler
                          G#
And often came into this town
           C#                     F#
But the thrills were too high for my little sky
      C#        G#            C#
So I dug in and I've settled down

And I got a good job in Nashville
No way they can pay me enough
For grindin' up tobacco leaves
Making brut and snuff

Chorus:
F#                  C#
Southern comfort is killin' me
F#                     C#
I'm slowly chokin' in Tennessee
   F#                     C#
I shovel the snuff until late afternoon
Then I crawl with the traffic and
I choke on its fumes
And fall on the face when I get to my room
C#                   G#     C#
Southern comfort is killin' me

I met a woman in Nashville
For a while we were carrying on
She'd washed snuff out of my shirts every night
And keep me with clean ones on

But I guess she got tired of tobacco
At least of the regular kind
Now I'm still working where nicotine
And memories are burning in my mind

Chorus:
And Southern comfort is killin' me
The Cumberland cannot inherit each bee
I'm sniffing and dipping and living alone
I smell funny smoke and I know where she's gone
She's in some other county now proving her own
Southern comfort is killin' me
Southern comfort is killin' me
