I[C] was up in N[Am]ew York City ju[F]st the other [C]week

[C]And those girl[Am]s out in California th[F]ey don't understa[C]nd
[C]They don't like it whe[Am]n I hold the door or when [F]I say yes m[C]a'am
[C]They act like I don[Am]e something wrong and they g[F]ive me the evil e[C]ye
[C]I say honey I'm so[Am]rry I'm in a s[F]outhern state of [C]mind
Chorus:
I could be a[F]nywhe[C]re
In my heart [G]I'm always [Am]there
Where they d[F]rink sweet tea and they r[C]aise you to be p[G]olite
No changing' w[F]ho I a[C]m

Chorus:
I could be a[F]nywhe[C]re
In my heart I'm[G] always the[Am]re
Where ya kn[F]ow everybody and if ya [C]don't you're still po[G]lite
