F  G     Em7                                          
Oh oh Alabama,                                        
F         G              F         C                  
The devil fools with the best laid plans              
F     G      Em7                                      
Swing low Alabama.                                    
F                          D                          
You got the spare change - you got to feel strange    
E                  F           G                      
And now the moment is all that it meant.              
1:                                            
Am                                                    
Alabama - you got the weight on your shoulders        
        C            D                                
That's breaking your back.                            
Am                                                    
Your cadillac has got a wheel in the ditch            
        C            D                                
And a wheel on the track.

F         G              F         C                  
Banjos playing through the broken glass               
F     G      Em7                                      
Windows down in Alabama                               
F                          D                          
See the old folks tied in white ropes                 
E                  F           G                      
Hear the banjos, don't it take you down home

F     G      Em7

To help you along                           
Am                                          
What's going wrong?
