I have received a number of requests for this song. While I have heard and enjoyed it many times, I have never actually learned it, so this is yet another new one for me. I have based my version on that done by Joan Baez, but many other artists have performed it including Johnny Cash, so this fulfils a request for another of his songs too. Hope you like it. • A final snippet of information gleaned from Wikipedia: The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down is a song written by Canadian musician Robbie Robertson, first recorded by The Band in 1969 and released on their self-titled second album. • The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down • Robbie Robertson • Capo at 1st fret • Am C F Am • Virgil Caine is my name, and I served on the Danville train, • C F Am • 'Til Stoneman's cavalry came and tore up the tracks again. • F C Am F • In the winter of '65, we were hungry, just barely alive. • Am F C Am D/D7 • By May the tenth, Richmond had fell, it's a time I remember, oh so well, • C Am F C Am • The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the bells were ringing, • C Am F C Am • The night they drove old Dixie down, and all the people were singin'.
