Down South
By Tom Petty
Highway Companion Album
D Dsus2 D
Headed back down south
G D Dsus2
Gonna see my daddy's mistress
G D Dsus2
Gonna buy back her forgiveness
Bm A A4 A
Pay off every witness
(repeat)
One more time down south
Sell the family headstones
Drag a bag of dry bones
Make good on my back loans

G D
So if I come to your door
G D
Let me sleep on your floor
G/D A
I'll give you all I have
D Dsus2 D
And a little more
Sleep in late.....

If you don't like the switch between D to G/D in the refrain, try a Dsus4, it's
easier but, a little flat.

The other versions on this song are great. I love this song, just wanted to add my cut.
