[Verse 1]
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.”
[Verse 2]
G Cadd9 G 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.
