Full Song
Verse 1
A D
Sugar Magnolia, blossoms bloomin’,
A E
Head’s all empty and I don’t care.
A D
Saw my baby down by the river,
A E
Knew she’d have to come up soon for air.
Chorus
A D
Sugar Magnolia, ringin’ that bluebell,
A E
Caught up in sunday.
A D
Sugar Magnolia, come on out,
A E
I got some sweet dreams for you.
Verse 2
A D
She can dance a cajun rhythm,
A E
Jump like a Willys in four-wheel drive.
A D
She’s a summer love in the spring, fall, and winter,
A E
She can make happy any man alive.
Chorus
A D
Sugar Magnolia, ringin’ that bluebell,
A E
Caught up in sunday.
A D
Sugar Magnolia, come on out,
A E
I got some sweet dreams for you.
Bridge
A D
Sunshine, daydream,
A E
Walking in the tall trees,
A D
Going where the wind goes,
A E
Blooming like a red rose.
Verse 3
A D
She’s got everything delightful,
A E
She’s got everything I need.
A D
Takes the wheel when I’m seeing double,
A E
Pays my ticket when I speed.
Chorus
A D
Sugar Magnolia, ringin’ that bluebell,
A E
Caught up in sunday.
A D
Sugar Magnolia, come on out,
A E
I got some sweet dreams for you.
