Capo 3
G Cadd9 G
I said, "Mama don't you worry, I'm getting by just fine out on the road.
Am Cadd9 D
Yeah, tonight we played in Knoxville and tomorrow night its back to Music
G
Row.
G Cadd9 G
No, I don't know when I'm coming home, Montgomery seems so very far away".
Am D
She said, "Boy, it wouldn't kill you none to look out past the bright
G
lights on that stage.
(Chorus)
Cadd9 D G
'Cause God put stars in Alabama. You just can't find in Tennessee.
Am D
The same ones are waiting on you. That taught you how to dream.
Cadd9 D G
I know there's big names up in Nashville. And you'll be one before too long.
Am D G
But God put stars in Alabama. To help you find your way back home."

I hung up the phone and I could feel the emptiness at 80 miles an hour.
Am D
And I listened close and I could hear my heart beating louder than the
G
tires.
G Cadd9
This old bus was headed west but my mind was drifting somewhere towards the
G
south.
Am Cadd9 D
And I closed my eyes and I could see the bright lights shining clearly
G
through the clouds.
(Chorus)
Cadd9 D G
'Cause God put stars in Alabama. You just can't find in Tennessee.
Am D
The same ones are waiting on you. That taught you how to dream.
Cadd9 D G
I know there's big names up in Nashville. And you'll be one before too long.
Am G
But God put stars in Alabama. To help you find your way back home."
Am
Yeah, there's stars in Alabama. (Pause) That just can't wait 'til you get
G
home.
