B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
What the fuck happened here?
E
I guess it's what they meant when
E
They payed the price
B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
Where are the trailer parks?
E
And where all the Christmas lights?
[Pre-Chorus]
F#
I had a boyfriend
G#m
He came from this town
E F#
We used to pretend we were married and start again
G#m
He read the Bible
E
Showed me what Jesus said
F# B
He said only read the red
[Chorus]
B F# E G#m F# B
I want Jesus to take me out of this life, baby
B F# E
And I talk to Jesus
G#m F# B
And ask him if he'll think of saving me
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...
[Verse 2]
B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
Nothing looks familiar here
E
No one even left that I like
B
I go back to Alabama
F#
Take a look at my life
E
I was so much happier when
E
I was gonna be your wife
[Pre-Chorus 2]
F#
We had a deal and
G#m
I fucked it up when
E F#
I made the decision to become someone
G#m
We had the one thing
E
That no one ever had
F#
True love
B
It's true love
[Chorus]
B F# E G#m F# B
I want Jesus to take me out this life, baby
B F#
And I talk to Jesus
E G#m F# B
And ask him if he'll think of saving me
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...
[Verse 3]
B G#m
I never meant to hurt you, baby
E
It's so hard to be true
F#
In this world where everything's so black and blue
G#m E
I never meant to hurt you darling
F#
It's so hard to be good
B
In this world where you do (what you know you shouldn't)
[Chorus]
B F# E G#m F# B
I want Jesus to take me out this life, baby
B F#
And I talk to Jesus
E G#m F# B
And ask him if he'll think of saving me
B F# E G#m F# B
Ooh...
