        Bb    C              FDear Magnolia, I lend you my ear
             Bb          C              F     AmWhisper your stories and secrets hidden here
                Bb   Dm    C          G7    GmOf a south that rose, of a south that fell
             F     Bbm           Gm    FYour days of glory, your days of Hell

[Verse 2]
             Bb     C              FWe'll weep together, praise to the lord
             Bb         C            F       AmRaise up our voices and lay down our swords
                   Bb    Dm     C           G7     GmTo the souls we've lost, to the souls we've found
                       F         Bbm                     Gm      A7   DmThough they never stop asking us, did you really have to take us down

[Chorus]
             C        Bb                FHeavy-headed blossoms, fragrant as they fall
    Bb              AmFor I have wandered through the door
   Bb             A7        DmOf everything you stand for
             C        Bb            FHeavy-headed blossoms, gracefully reveal
Dm               C               BbmThat which I had always felt was missing
                       Gm7Like the rolling dreams of a wagonless wheel

              Bb   C          FYour sweet survival has given rise
          Bb         C          F     AmUnto your wisdom and yet you realize
                       Bb   Dm        C        G7    GmAlthough your arms are long, and your reach is wide
            F             Bbm             Gm                  FWithin your deepest scars, there are some snakes still hiding

                      Bb    Dm        C     G7    GmThere we'll stand our ground 'til the moon above
              F                 Bbm     Gm      A7   DmComes shining through the smoke, in the name of love

    Bb              AmFor I have wandered through the door
