BREAKFAST IN BIRMINGHAM
As recorded by Tanya Tucker feat. Brandi Carlile
(From the 2023 Album SWEET WESTERN SOUND)
[Intro]
D G Bm G A
[Verse 1]
D Just a little static G Breakin’ up the Beatles D AM wakeup Tuesday mornin’ tunes A D It’s a turquoise-blue good mornin’ G With the copper eagle flying’ D Whippin’ through the plains A D North across the motel-rendezvous
[Verse 2]
D You know me, I’m still a-movin’ G Just as slow as ol’ molasses D A Bacon cooked up good and crisp for gone D Moved in to Alabama G In a purple Firebird D Looking for some love A D Looking for the words to write a song
[Chorus]
A As cheap as gas is here G I will look beyond my longing Bm G A The extra dollar doesn’t mean a damn A If I get clear of Jasper G And all this dixie thunder D A D I’ll get breakfast with brown eyes in Birmingham
[Interlude]
Bm G A
[Verse 3]
D Hippies on the shoulder G Yeah, they’re at a place hearabouts D A They’re tie-dyed and golden-haired and free D All the motorcycle cowboys G Highway two-sixty-nine’ers D Pullin’ up the shades A D And shuttin’ down the rebel history
[Verse 4]
D Oh me, I’m still a-blowin’ G Through the same old C-sharp harp D A Old hymns and Arthur Alexander songs D Jakey Hess is up in Heaven G Together they’ll both be singin’ D Singin’ with the Lord above you A D Best be movin’ on
[Chorus]
A As cheap as gas is here G I will look beyond my longing Bm G A The extra dollar doesn’t mean a damn A If I get clear of Jasper G And all this dixie thunder D A D I’ll get breakfast with brown eyes in Birmingham A As cheap as gas is here G I will look beyond my longing Bm G A The extra dollar doesn’t mean a damn A If I get clear of Jasper G And all this dixie thunder D A D I’ll get breakfast with brown eyes in Birmingham
[Outro]
A Bm I’ll get breakfast with brown eyes in Birmingham D A G I’ll get breakfast with brown eyes in Birmingham D Oh, Birmingham
