The North Won The War Again Last Night Chords

(ver. 1)
Cal Smith
C                        C7
Bus station in Atlanta 6:40 in the evening

        F                     C
She was standing cold and all alone

                              E7
I ask where she was going but she had no way of knowing

D7                                    G7
Cause she was broke and long way from home


C                                   C7
Straight from New York City she was young thin and pretty

F                             C
She belonged in a fashion magazine

       F
I said stay with me till morning 

           C               F
I've got a bed to keep you warm in

   C                G7       C
We call it southern hospitality
 

G7                     F                    C
Lying in the stillness there was no blue or gray

G7                          F                C   G7
Only sweet surrender in the shadows where we la--y

F           G7                   E7                C
She held me close and loved this southern boy just right

        D7            G7             C
And the north won the war again last night


                           C7
Morning's all around me my arms are all around her

      F                              C
She's sleeping Lord and she looks so fine

                                     E7
Between the shades of last night and this mornings daylight

D7                          G7
We found love's Mason Dixon line
 

C                            C7
And in her arms I found that love isn't north or south
  
   F                                C
It isn't how you say the things you say

         F               C            F
New York City or Atlanta Cleveland or Savanna
 
      C             G7         C
She's taken all the boundaries away


G7                     F                    C
Lying in the stillness there was no blue or gray

G7                          F                C   G7
Only sweet surrender in the shadows where we la--y

F           G7                   E7                C
She held me close and loved this southern boy just right

        D7            G7             C
And the north won the war again last night
