Lyrics
Christmas in the South
(Verse 1)
[A] Here in Dixie, [E] snow rarely falls,
[A] Porches lit up, [F#m] and town hall calls.
[D] Magnolia's scent, [A] sweet tea in hand,
[E] Santa's warm welcome, [A] in our Southern land.
(Verse 2)
[A] Grandma's baking, [E] a pecan pie,
[A] Kids chase fireflies, [F#m] under the sky.
[D] Fried turkey aroma, [A] fills the night's air,
[E] Christmas down South, [A] love everywhere.
(Chorus)
[D] Bells softly jingle, [A] in the warm breeze,
[E] Mistletoe hangs from [A] old cypress trees.
[D] No chilly chimneys, [A] or frost to be found,
[E] Here in the South, [A] joy's all around.
(Verse 3)
[A] Trucks dressed in lights, [E] shining so clear,
[A] Carolers' songs [F#m] we all love to hear.
[D] Church bells are ringing [A] across the town square,
[E] Echoing peace, [A] and holiday flair.
(Bridge)
[Bm] Guitars gently strum, [D] songs full of glee,
[Bm] Winters of old, [E] tales by the tree.
[D] Heart of this season, [A] remains ever true,
[E] Love and warm wishes, [A] in all that we do.
(Chorus)
[D] Bells softly jingle, [A] in the warm breeze,
[E] Mistletoe hangs from [A] old cypress trees.
[D] No need for sled rides, [A] or snow's icy touch,
[E] Southern Christmas warmth, [A] we love so much.
(Verse 4)
[A] Around the fire, [E] stories we share,
[A] Legends of old, [F#m] in the night air.
[D] With kin and friends, [A] blessings we see,
[E] Memories made, [A] 'neath the holly tree.
(Chorus)
[D] Bells softly jingle, [A] in the warm breeze,
[E] Mistletoe hangs from [A] old cypress trees.
[D] Stars brightly shining, [A] guide Santa's way,
[E] Christmas in the South, [A] we cherish today.
(Outro)
[A] Here's to the season, [E] joy, love, and mirth,
[A] Southern Christmases, [F#m] the best on earth.
[D] Magic and wonder, [A] in each song we sing,
[E] Merry Christmas, y'all, [A] let the bells ring.
