        A
i hung up the phone and i could feel
        D                         A
the emptiness at eighty miles an hour
         E
and i listened close and i could hear
                                   A
my heart beating louder than the tires

          A
this old bus was headed west
         D                                       A
but my mind was drifting somewhere towards the south
       E
and i close my eyes and i could see
                                                A
the bright lights shining clearly through the clouds

                          D
cause god put stars in alabama
                           A
you just can't find in tennessee
                          B
the same ones are waitin' on you
                         E
that taught you how to dream
                                                      D
i know there's (she said there's) big names up in nashville
                               A
and you'll be one before too long
                        Bm
but god put stars in alabama
                                 A

                         Bm
