"Vidalia" performed by Sammy Kershaw Written by Tim Nichols From the album "Politics Religion and Her" Transcribed by Brian Ophoff Note: Once you get the strum pattern down, try squeezing and releasing the chords or throwing in a suspended here and there. The cd sounds like its in A, but I can sing it better in G by substituting A,D,E with G,C,D. Intro: A(4counts) D(3counts) A(1count) 2 times A Aint nothin so precious as a first born child D A What to call their little angel, they wondered for a while A Your dear mama Violet and your proud daddy Dale D I know when they named ya they surely meant well, but Chorus: A E Vidalia, Vidalia A D A E Girl won't you tell me why, sweet Vidalia D A You always gotta make me cry. Short instrumental break (1 x intro) A I never paid no attention to a girl before D A Till the day I saw you standin in the Sunday school door A One boy sort of snickered when the roll was read D Till you laid the word of God upside of his head Chorus: A E Vidalia, Vidalia A D A E Girl wont you tell me why, sweet Vidalia D E... You always gotta make me... cry Bridge: E When I try to get too close D Seems like we've always been almost A E Just one step or two away from true love Instrumental break: repeat intro A Well I love the way you walk, I love the way you kiss D A I love to get away with you alone like this A If I could just mention just one little thing D Vidalia would you stop livin up to your name Chorus: A E Vidalia, Vidalia A D A E Girl wont you tell me why, sweet Vidalia D A You always gotta make me cry. E Vidalia A D A E Girl wont you tell me why, sweet Vidalia D A You always gotta make me cry. D A You always gotta make me cry D A You always gotta make me cry
