	  G 
She was raised up in a cotton field 
       D 
In the South Carolina sand 
  C 
A place they call the Pee Dee 
         G                   D 
Where no bright light city’d stand 
        G 
But the boys came down from all around 
     D 
Like moths drawn to the flame 
       C 
They’d try to win her over 
             D            G 
But she was, too tough to tame 

G 
Still each and every Labor Day 
    D 
The boys would all come down 
C 
Wantin’ to get lucky 
          G       D 
With that lady in black 
Em 
She was fickle with’em all 
          C 
And she’d stripe’em, spin’em on the wall 
G                                      D 
And you were really something when you won 
          G 
At Darlington 

G 
Yeah end of every summer 
          D 
She would be the Pee Dee’s pride 
C 
The boys came with their shinny cars but she’d 
D 
Take them for the ride 
     Em 
Yeah Cael and Dale and awesome Bill 
    C 
All had their way but even still 
G                                  D 
The lady ruled the day when it was done 
          G 
At Darlington 




Em 
Now all the boys, they still say 
C                          Em 
That they love her the most 
         C 
But they’ve gone to chasin money 
       D 
On the California cost 

        G 
Now the lady in black is faded gray 
D 
She’s all alone on labor day 
C                                 G 
The boys don’t come around her anymore 
           Em 
When those folks from California 
          C 
Stole the show that shoulda warned ya 
     G                                   D 
That changing times would set the summer sun 
          C       C7 
On Darlington 
    G                   C                   D 
Yea don’t they know the awful thing they’ve done 
          G    Cadd9 G 
To Darlington
