Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em][Am][D][G][Em][Am][D]
[G]

[Verse 1]
You coax the [G]blues right [Abdim]out of the horn,[Am]
[C]Mam[D]e,[C][D][Am]
You [E]charm [Am]the husk right o[D]ff of the [G]corn,
[Em]Mame,
You've got [Baug]that ba[Em]njoes strummin'
And [Bm]plunkin' out a tune to beat the band,
[D][Abdim][Am]
The [E]whole [Am]plantation[D]'s hummin'
Since [G]you brought Dixie [Abdim]back
to Dixie [D]land.[Eb][Ab]
You make the cotton easy to [Bbm]pick ,[Db]
[Eb]Mame,[Bbm]
You give my old mint julep a [C]kick,
[Fm]Mame,
Who ever thought a Yankee would [Cm]put
A little Dixie mouse to [F]shame.
[Gm][Cm][F][Bbm]
You've [F]made [Faug]us feel [Bbm]alive [Eb]again,
[Cm]
You've given us the [F]drive [Bb]again,
To [Bbaug]make the [Bb]Sout[Eb]h revive again,
[Ab]Mame.[E]
[A]Beauregard Burnside:
You've brought the cake- walk [Bbdim]back into styl[Bm]e,
[D]Mam[E]e[Bm]
You make the weepin' wil[E]low tree [A]smile,
[C#m]Mame,[A][F#m]
Your [Faug]skin is Dix[F#m]ie satin,
There's [C#m]rebel in your manner and your [F#]speech,
[Bbdim][Bm]
You may be from Manhat[E]tan,
But [A]Georgia never [Bbdim]had a
[A]sweeter [E]peach.[F][Bb]

[Verse 2]
You make our [Bb]black- eyed [Bdim]peas and our gr[Cm]its,
[F]Mame,
[Cm]Seem like [G]the bill[Cm] of fare[F] at the [Cm]Ritz,[D]
[Gm]Mame,
You came, you saw, you conquered
And [Dm]absolutely nothing is the [F]same.
You're special fas[Cm]cination'll prove to be
in[G]spirational,
We think you're [Cm]just sensational, Mame.
[F]Since you brought Dixie
[Dm]back to Dixie land.
Since you brought Dixie back to Dixie land.
You coax the blues right
[G]out of the horn, Mame,
You charm the [C]husk right off of the corn,
Mame,
You've got that ban[F]joes strummin'
And plunkin' out a tune
to beat the band,
The whole [Bb]plantation's
hummin'
Since you brought Dixie
back to Dixie land.
You make the cotton easy to pick,
[C]Mame,
You give my old mint julep a kick, Mame,
[Eb]Who ever thought a Yankee
would put
A little Dixie mouse to shame.
You've [F]made [Ebm]us fee[B]l alive again,[Bb]
[F][Bb]
You've given us the drive again,
To make the South revive
again, Mame.
Mame! Mame! Mame! Mame!
